The 2026 Grammy's has officially begun, and 2025's pop it-girl Addison Rae has arrived on the red carpet in a custom Alaïa look. The first-time Grammy nominee for Best New Artist arrived at the awards ceremony tonight in LA tonight in a plunging white Alaïa tutu gown, referenced straight from look 41 of the house's Spring/Summer 2026 runway collection.
While the skirt was almost identical, the "Aquamarine" singer's top half was a plunging white structured piece. With creative director Pieter Mulier's recent exit from the house (his final collection will be this March) it may be one of his last custom red carpet creations while at the helm of Alaïa.

The look was reportedly styled by Interview Magazine's fashion director and Rae's long-time collaborator, Dara Allen. Rae's nomination for Best New Artist this year, sees her up against Olivia Dean, KATSEYE, The Marias, Sombr, Leon Thomas III, Alex Warren, and Lola Young.
“It’s such an honor to be recognized—not just as a new artist, but as an artist at all—by the Recording Academy. Anyone who has ever dreamed of doing what they love but feared they wouldn’t be taken seriously knows how much this kind of moment means. I’ve definitely battled with that doubt before, wondering if this could ever be possible.” the singer told Variety of her nomination.
