Giorgio Armani was the go-to designer for several of the night’s biggest stars—and even the host—at the 2025 Grammy Awards. Whether it was sleek sophistication, a nod to the archives, or a little rock-and-roll edge, the Italian fashion house delivered an array of memorable moments.
The Powerhouse Performer
Old Hollywood glamour with a modern edge—Raye understood the assignment. The singer had a massive night, with nominations in multiple categories (Best New Artist, Songwriter of the Year, Non-Classical, and Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical) and a highly anticipated performance. For the occasion, she wore a custom Armani Privé black silk gown with a crystal-encrusted neckline and a sculptural draped skirt—a masterclass in refined glamour. De Beers jewels and Nikos Koulis Oui studs added the perfect finishing touches.
1991, but make it 2025. Vintage Armani, Reimagined
Picking up the Best Alternative Music Performance award for All Born Screaming, St. Vincent wore a custom Giorgio Armani black satin blazer with a shawl collar, styled with mini shorts—a reimagined look from the designer’s 1991 collection. She completed the ensemble with black satin gloves, fishnet tights, and contrasting pale pink socks, striking the perfect balance between rockstar edge and refined elegance, with just the right amount of irreverence.
Rock & Roll Elegance
Alissia Benveniste, nominated for Producer of the Year, Non-Classical, turned up the drama in an Armani Privé strapless black gown, fully embroidered with sequins and Swarovski crystals. The front slit and zipper piping effect gave the dress a bold, edgy energy, proving that Armani can do rock & roll just as well as it does timeless red carpet glamour.
The Dapper Host
As the night’s host, Trevor Noah had multiple outfit changes, but for his red carpet arrival and opening monologue, he kept it timelessly elegant in a midnight blue Giorgio Armani peak lapel evening jacket with a chevron tone-on-tone pattern ensuring this look stood out. I love how he elevated the look with a Tiffany & Co. brooch and Christian Louboutin Rosalio Chelsea boots. Armani + Tiffany & Co. + Louboutin = winning formula.
Subtle, Yet Striking. A lesson in understated elegance
Ryan Beatty, who contributed four writing credits to Beyoncé’s Album of the Year-winning Cowboy Carter, opted for classic Armani tailoring. He wore an Emporio Armani black peak lapel tuxedo, trimmed in satin, with a silver brooch that subtly enhanced the look’s sophistication.
