She'd won American Idol and was at a pre-party for her first CMAs, and unexpectedly, she looks like she's about to play a bullfighter in a ballet. Call it *The Gutcracker Suite.* ## 2005 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_6384121b-1605071573.jpg) She wore this to the actual ceremony, which is actually pretty good -- consider, it's her first big ANYTHING post-Idol. ## 2005 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_6384122b-1605071583.jpg) She wore this to sing "Jesus Take The Wheel," and Jesus was like, "I will, because you are going to kill yourself trying to drive with those sleeves." ## 2005 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_560706d-1605071317.jpg) And this is the afterparty. Times were so, so different, but her hair has always been RIDICULOUSLY healthy. ## 2006 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_6377873f-1605071565.jpg) This photo says, "I did my hair with a dinglehopper." ## 2007 CMAs ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_711398f-1605071330.jpg) At this point she was already pretty established -- she hit it big quite quickly after Idol -- and this dress actually looks kind of like something she'd wear now, EXCEPT that today the lower half of it would be sheer. ## 2008 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_818148q-1605071366.jpg) Bold color! (She likes it; she'll wear it twice more in this slideshow.) I think it needed slightly more sophisticated head-styling, because it's a strong hue and the cut of the bodice leans cheesy. ## 2008 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_818146ck-1605071357.jpg) This feels like an extended blouse. ## 2009 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_1037084r-1605071376.jpg) This is easily one of her prettiest gowns. I am a sucker for sparkles and patterns, so it's right in the Venn Diagram for me. ## 2009 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_1037150b-1605071385.jpg) On-stage, she was firmly in her LEGS phase. She looks like she's hatching. ## 2009 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_1037150p-1605071393.jpg) This is a little Lemon Wedding Cake, but I don't hate it. ## 2010 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_1247640b-1605071402.jpg) That's intricate and pretty, but perhaps... a bit grim on her? What if it were fuchsia? ## 2010 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_1247825c-1605071411.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Sipa/Shutterstock (1247825c) Carrie Underwood 44th Annual CMA Awards, Nashville, Tennesee, America - 10 Nov 2010 She looks shockingly like Reese Witherspoon here. That's quite a ball gown; I wish the satin overskirt didn't look SO much like invisible fists were grabbing it out of the way. ## 2010 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_1247825n-1605071421.jpg) This was a big swerve into something simple. I assume she was hosting this year; I'm not actually sure when that started. WAIT, Wikipedia will tell me: 2008, so yes, she was definitely running through outfits as the emcee. I'm so glad we worked through that process together. ## 2011 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_1490637af-1605071430.jpg) Not bad, but why is the extra-gold part right over her crotch? ## 2011 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_1491114aw-1605071439.jpg) This is both pretty, and something I would have guessed came WAY earlier in her career, had I not already known the date on the photo. ## 2011 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_1491114r-1605071467.jpg) Her shoes seem so complicated and clompy that I did for a second think the microphone base was part of them. I don't know WHAT this outfit is. An ode to mobsters? ## 2011 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_6258252bn-1605071555.jpg) These are the shoes in their actual state. They are... not right with that origami pillowcase of an outfit. ## 2011 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_1491114bl-1605071449.jpg) Again something about the hair and makeup seems... dowdy, almost, compared to the drama of the dress? ## 2011 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_1491114h-1605071458.jpg) This looks like a magic trick gone wrong. ## 2012 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_1944574bb-1605071485.jpg) Okay, now we're into Fancy Gangrene. ## 2013 in Ralph & Russo ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_3330493bb-1605071492.jpg) Remember earlier when I said, "This dress looks like she'd wear it now, but the skirt would be sheer?" This is the one I was picturing. ## 2013 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_3330504aq-1605071502.jpg) I ABSOLUTELY think Carrie should switch it up and try wild pants and suits, but... let's not start with bell-bottoms. ## 2013 in Georges Chakra ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_3330504ar-1605071510.jpg) And here we have a pink penis and a harness. ## 2013 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_3330504e-1605071519.jpg) "I call it CROCODILE HUNTER COUTURE. Do you LOVE IT???" ## 2013 in Siriano ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_3330504i-1605071528.jpg) Carrie doesn't often wear big designers, or at least, not the ones we traditionally think of as big. Siriano's profile has only grown since this time, and I don't think she's worn him since, honestly. ## 2013 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_3330504p-1605071537.jpg) ... Did she sit in some bleach? ## 2014 in Lorena Sarbu ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_4232235g-1605071546.jpg) This was maternity wear. It's perfectly nice. ## 2015 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_9053252cn-1605071602.jpg) She looks GREAT in this color. I like when she keeps it a bit simpler. ## 2016 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_9054180eb-1605071613.jpg) Wait so I might need to start watching the CMAs. ## 2016 in Michael Cinco ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_6908269dt-1605071593.jpg) THIS version of "simpler" is also GLAM. I might love it. ## 2017 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_9212885ee-1605071625.jpg) This is a bit Joan Collins on her, but honestly, she IS one of the biggest celebrities in country music so I do not object to this direction. ## 2017 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_9212982bn-1605071634.jpg) I DO object to her wearing a small table. ## 2017 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_9212982dk-1605071644.jpg) And Joan Collins would not endorse this direction. ## 2017 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_9212982j-1605071653.jpg) Two capes in one night! I am concerned she's wearing a romper under this one, which is not at all a helpful step away from the Britney catsuit. ## 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_9979201ao-1605071663.jpg) That's a nice enough pattern, against a dull as HELL background shade. ## 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_9979271ax-1605071673.jpg) Thankfully, Carrie knows how to bring the drama on-stage. ## 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_9979274cw-1605071685.jpg) Props to her for doing this pregnant and bringing scores of challenging costume changes. ## 2019 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_9980590r-1605071694.jpg) This was clearly a joke, but I am on the outside of it. ## 2019 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_10474332dj-1605071703.jpg) But I... really don't like this. At least Fraulein Maria's drapes weren't sheer, and didn't devolve into tulle nonsense. ## Carrie and Reba ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_10474408bf-1605071723.jpg) Oh, CARRIE. Why must your gowns run out of steam? ## 2019 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_10474408af-1605071713.jpg) OH CARRIE. Well, look, her inevitable Vegas show someday is going to be crackers.
