Lady Gaga cut a dramatic figure in a custom Armani Privé high-necked lace bodysuit and a billowy detachable skirt, complete with train and high-leg slit. The performer and nominee topped off the dramatic look with Lorraine Schwartz chandelier earrings embellished with more than 300 carats of black diamonds.

Wearing a look straight off the Alexanre Vauthier Spring 2018 runway, Hailee Steinfeld stepped out in a strapless white column gown with a thigh slit that showcased her metallic purple knee-high boots. On her fingers, Steinfeld wore rings by Mattia Cielo, Hearts On Fire, and Djula Jewelry.

(Jason Szenes / EPA-EFE/REX/Shutterstock)Nominee Lana Del Rey was the essence of red-carpet royalty in an ivory-hued custom Gucci double silk crepe gown, adorned with crystal embroidery and accented with a celestial crown of stars.

(“I try to channel the flamenco emoji for as many events as possible,” quipped the former Fifth Harmony star on Instagram.)

She does, however, get points for being on the whole suit trend -- and color-coordinating her hair. Which makes things about even in our book.
