If there’s one major trend to emerge from the red carpet at this year’s Grammy Awards, it’s certainly that western wear is back in full force.

With stars like Diplo, Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus all appearing at this year’s awards ceremony is blinged-out cowboy attire, there’s no denying that the over-the-top style has won the hearts of some of music’s heavy hitters.

The ladies of the Grammys were also on board with this trend, as stars like Rosalia and Yola also embraced leather and fringe for their red carpet looks.

Although at first glance the trend might not seem super wearable, there are actually subtle ways to work this trend into your wardrobe, minus all the neon and sequins. I’d also recommend sticking one or two pieces at a time like this chic street style example, or else risk looking like an extra on the set of “Westworld”.
