The annual Grammy Awards are back, and so are your favourite celebrities of Asian heritage who rocked these fashion-forward red carpet looks
The 67th Grammy Awards wasn’t just an opportunity to commemorate the best in music. Taking place at the Crypto.com Arena, the red carpet was also rolled out for celebrities to arrive dressed to the nines in dazzling ensembles.
At the forefront of this sartorial celebration were stars of Asian descent from Bruno Mars and Olivia Rodrigo to Charli XCX (fun fact: the Brat superstar has Gujarati Indian roots). While those like Rodrigo opted to show some skin in all black, others took the conventional suit to the next level with shiny sequins and buttery leather. East-meets-west fashion fusions also ruled the red carpet at the Grammys.
Here are Tatler’s top picks of the Asian celebrity looks that had us pining for more at the 2025 Grammy Awards.
