Kelly Clarkson turned heads when she rocked up to the 2024 Grammy Awards on Sunday night wearing the most spectacular ensemble.
The 41-year-old has been missing from the prestigious ceremony for the last few years – but she came back with a bang in one of her most head-turning looks to date.
The Since You've Been Gone singer was a vision in a custom, porcelain white Jason Wu Collection sculpted crepe gown that hugged her slimmed-down physique.
The delicate dress highlighted her tiny waist and boasted a subtle train with pleat detailing.
She accessorized with sparkling Jared Atelier Diamond jewelry, a white clutch from The Bella Rosa Collection, and Stuart Weitzman shoes.
Kelly oozed old Hollywood glamour with her hair in expertly styled waves with plenty of volume at the crown.

Kelly's stylist, Micaela Erlanger – who has been working with her on The Kelly Clarkson Show since she moved to NYC – teased her outfit ahead of the ceremony, and we certainly weren't disappointed.

She added: "The overall look [is] sleek, elegant and just the right amount of sultry."

The seven-year-old looked thrilled to be his mother's date for the evening and looked adorable in a red velvet suit with a yellow flower attached to the lapel of his jacket.

Kelly shared her joy over being nominated back in November, writing on Instagram: "Wow! I am so grateful for every Grammy nomination I have ever received from the @recordingacademy, but this album means so much to me and this nomination hits differently.

Kelly penned an impressive 40 to 50 songs for Chemistry – which was largely inspired by her relationship and divorce from ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock – but some tracks were "too truth-telling" to be included in the final selection of 14 songs.
"I know people will hear this record and be like, 'Oh, damn, she went there!' and I'm like, 'No, I promise you I didn't,'" she told Entertainment Weekly.

"I don't have control over it. But what I do have control over is the fact that I know I don't have control over it, so it's fine."
Kelly and Brandon split in 2020 but their divorce wasn't finalized until two years later. They share Remy, and their daughter River, nine.
