Las Vegas played host to the ACM Awards, and the stars pulled out all the stops for the high-energy event at MGM Grand Garden Arena. Shania Twain took on hosting duties for the first time, and the show, which aired exclusively on Prime Video, made for a night to remember. There were plenty of surprises (Parker McCollum taking home Album of the Year!) and unforgettable performances (The Red Clay Strays brought the house down). But as for any awards show, we must take a moment for the fashion. Here are our favorite looks of the night.
Kelsea Ballerini
Kelsea looked like a golden goddess with her mermaid hair.
Lainey Wilson
Excuse us, but our jaws dropped when Lainey stepped out in this fringed gown—not a cowboy hat or bellbottom in sight!
Ella Langley
Ella had several outfit changes throughout the night, and it’s hard to pick a favorite. So we’re not going to. She wore Pamella Roland (left) and Dolce & Gabbana (right) paired with Yellow Rose by Kendra Scott jewelry for two of her looks.
Emily Ann Roberts
The self-proclaimed Yeehaw Meemaw is Country Living’s favorite star, and she looked just as stunning at the awards show as she does in a hand-crocheted sweater.
Lauren Alaina
Lauren Alaina gave a powerful speech about mental health to introduce Dan + Shay’s performance. She embraced the Vegas glam with her off-the-shoulder ensemble by OUMA Atelier.
MŌRIAH
The Charley Pride Honoree brought her stunning style to the red carpet in a gorgeous gown by LVD Bridal.
Ashley Cooke
Ashley brought the drama with this standout Rhea Costa gown—a perfect fit for her baby blue era. The sheer panels bring the perfect amount of Vegas to the red carpet.
Miranda Lambert
Miranda sparkled like the country queen she is as she took the stage to sing her new song, “Crisco.”
Carter Faith
The “Cherry Valley” singer looked effortlessly elegant on the ACM Awards red carpet.
Shania Twain
The evening’s host had several outfit changes, but our favorite has to be her ultra-glam gold gown with matching heels.
