Here are our favorite looks and the ones that barely missed the mark.
Best Dressed
Michelle Monaghan
The actress was the best dressed of the night in a sequin bodysuit by Pace Rabbane that may have been more suited to the Grammys or VMAs, but added a distinctive edge to the ceremony.
Carrie Underwood
America’s queen of country music’s might like a little bit beauty pagenat in her off the shoulder blue Fouad Sarkis gown, but that hair and makeup is absolutely flawless.
Miranda Lambert
This princess gown is guilty of being a bit boring, but the CMAs is generally an event of conservative dress and this sky blue Tony Ward number fits the bill.
Niall Horan
The Irish singer is fast becoming One Direction’s most successful solo member, but it’s not in thanks to his red carpet fashion. Yes, his suit has a glitter trim (as does his belt), but it’s practically a requirement at the CMAs.
Lea Michele
The former Glee star’s fun and flirty Zuhair Murad look is a winner.
Jessie James Decker
Maternity wear is hard enough to find, nevermind for a red carpet. The American singer looks absolutely stunning in an off the shoulder berry gown.
Ruby Rose
The Orange Is The New Black star is adding some obligatory head to toe sparkle in an August Getty Atelier dress.
Faith Hill
The country legend showed ’em how it’s done with her impossibly elegant asymmetric gown and her hair is simply #bungoals.
Kelsea Ballerini
The nominee for female vocalist of the year came up smelling like Roses on the red carpet in a floral number from Michael Kors Collection.
Maddie & Tae
The duo looked sophisticated yet youthful in the dresses they chose for the evening’s celebration.
Worst Dressed
Lindsay Ell
The shoes are ace but the dress is ill-fitting and swamps her petite frame.
Carly Pearce
Carly looks like she ordered this dress on sale for a night out with the girls this weekend.
Karlie Kloss
A rare miss for the supermodel.
Mary Lawless Lee
Apparently, she’s a blogger, but if she suited up her suit, she’d look runway ready instead of show-offy.
PINK
Pink is far too marshmallow-princess for the occasion.
Maren Morris
The layered hem on Morris’ metallic Francesco Scognamiglio frock detracted from the innovative design.
Karen Fairchild
We can get behind the silhouette that the member of Little Big Town band rocked at the awards show. However, we feel a vibrant hue or simply black would’ve been more successful than the jade animal print.
