Olivia Culpo
Of course! Another understated effort from noted country music star Olivia Culpo, who is not at all doing this for attention. (On the other hand, I have to give her credit: She was crowned Miss Universe in 2012. She dated Nick Jonas for a while. She is STILL getting invited to things, despite not....apparently doing anything else? It's honestly kind of impressive.) Having said all that, I think we're at a point where this just feels dated.
Kacey Musgraves in Versace
This, on the other hand, is pretty cool; she looks like a Country Music High Fashion Elvira (in a good way). I am not a huge country music fan, but every time I hear her, I remember that I think she's very talented.
RaeLynn
I am concerned that this....didn't not translate exactly as she had intended.
Bebe Rexha in custom Coach
Now Coach has got their claws in Bebe Rexha! In fairness, though I bitch about Coach being underwhelming in evening-wear all the time, she actually looks pretty great in this. (She's at the CMAs because she has a song with Florida Georgia Line at the moment.)
Hillary Scott
This is very COMPETENT PROFESSIONAL LADY and I always enjoy that. (It also reminds me of my prom dress, so there's that.)
Katie Stevens in Hayley Paige
The shape and length of this is lovely on her, but I think Dior's going to be...displeased, possibly legally, about those shoulder straps.
Andrea Boehlke
You know her face because she was on Survivor three times.
Gretchen Wilson
Gretchen Wilson always looks like she's ready to get in a bar fight on your behalf, and I like that about her.
Carly Pearce
The middle of this goes to a weird place. A place where JoAnn Fabrics went to die.
Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood
They look like they're dressing for the cover of their goth holiday album.
Martina McBride
Big (skirt) finish!
