Not everyone at the 52nd Grammy Awards dressed as outrageously as Lady Gaga or Imogen Heap. Most of the music world’s elite opted for timeless elegance, with gorgeous gowns paired with glittering jeweled clutches.
Many stars paired their outfits with Judith Leiber purses. Kristen Bell’s Etro gown and Fergie’s striking Pucci dress were both given a lift with classic Judith Leiber clutches. But not everyone played it so safe. Always the fashion rebel, Katy Perry’s unique floral frock was spiced up with Leiber’s Maharaja elephant minaudiere. With a bindi on her forehead, the pop star almost looked like she’d stepped out of a Bollywood movie!
While Judith Leiber reigned supreme, she wasn’t the only handbag designer making her presence felt on the red carpet. Ever the traditionalist, Carrie Underwood teamed her flowing Edition by George Chakra white gown with a Swarovski clutch. Meanwhile up-and-coming music bad girl Ke$ha chose a glittering clutch from fledgling label Cecelia.
