Of All Kacey Musgraves' Looks - This Stands Above The Rest
Superstar Kacey Musgraves has followed the Taylor Swift formula for transcending genres to perfection, creating an irresistible pop-country signature sound. Musgraves' style also plays between her chosen worlds, whether giving a nod to country in a sleek black suit with fringe and playful mesh at the 2018 CMAs or embracing her full pop princess potential in a light pink Rachey Comey power suit.
Musgraves' dreamy looks frequently incorporate butterflies, pastels, and all forms of glitter. And the star's trademark accessories include her sleek black hair paired with classic Hollywood glam makeup and a nude, pink, or red lip. But she also mixes it up, like when she rocked a glittery ponytail for a trip to New Orleans.
Star Style has some helpful hints on how to replicate the singer's best looks, from her iconic street style to her red carpet transformations. Whether Musgraves is making "Saturday Night Live" history by wearing only cowboy boots or donning an unexpectedly simple, embellished black gown at the 2022 Met Gala, she consistently proves that she's fabulously one of a kind and her style won't fit in a box.
Kacey Musgraves loves a pink tulle look
Kacey Musgraves' 2019 Academy Awards look was a pastel pink out of the singer's signature playbook, and its cascading tulle was appropriately dreamy for the film awards. The color palette for this look also resembled the star's rainbow ombre suit by Christian Cowan for the 2019 CMAs, and it had fans thinking of the hit song "Rainbow" off her 2018 album "Golden Hour."
Though Musgraves is a huge fan of pastels, she has also experimented with more jewel-toned looks. The singer pulls out all the stops when she goes for metallic colors, like the gold Cinq a Sept suit she wore to the 2022 launch of her candle line Boy Smells. The singer also pulled off autumnal goddess vibes for both 2019 Coachella weekends, rocking a bold squash orange.
Kacey Musgraves had another classic style moment when "Golden Hour" won album of the year at the 2019 Grammy Awards. She told People of her strapless, nude, Valentino Haute Couture gown, "I love this dress — it immediately struck me because it reminded me of the fan that was on my album cover."
Musgraves was a Malibu dream at the 2019 Met Gala
When it comes to Kacey Musgraves' best looks, it's hard not to think of the pink Moschino moto jacket dress from the 2019 Met Gala, inspired by the brand's real limited edition Barbie doll. The look had Twitter obsessed, and fans were comparing Musgraves to other blonde badasses like Elle Woods or Sharpay from "High School Musical," according to Cosmopolitan. It's easy to see why. Though Musgraves tends to go for looks with softer edges, her Met Gala Barbie moment took her penchant for femme styling to the next level, giving plenty of California girl attitude.
With a hot pink leather jacket dress, matching fur overcoat, and a bleach blonde wig, Musgraves was perfectly prepared for the Gala's Camp theme. Not to mention the fact that she cruised around in a hot pink convertible before the event.
Since the upcoming "Barbie" movie — from director Greta Gerwig and starring Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie — was first buzzed about in 2018, per Collider, Musgraves may have been angling for a spot on the soundtrack. She obviously respects the Mattel aesthetic, so fans will hopefully see the singer get in on the fun before the movie's release in 2023.
