The most daring looks men wore to the 2022 Grammys

One of the most notable faces of Gucci, Jared Leto obviously showed up to the 2022 Grammys wearing the brand.

Despite the warm Las Vegas weather, Leto wore a ruched coat with fur cuffs. However, he also wore a sparkling sheer lace shirt with a deep neckline.

The actor was styled in sleek sunglasses and white Cuban-heel boots. Leto later presented best pop vocal album at the awards in the look sans sunglasses.

Travis Barker walked the red carpet with Kourtney Kardashian in coordinated black looks.

Barker wore a Givenchy suit without a shirt, opting for a statement Tiffany & Co. crystal necklace instead. He also briefly wore a neon-pink oversized coat by Raf Simons, which amped up the drama of the look.

The musician later performed shirtless to back up H.E.R. and Lenny Kravitz.

For his entrance into the Grammys, icon Lenny Kravitz wore a rock 'n' roll look. His metallic chain-mail halter top was custom made by Natalia Fedner.

"The top is made from over 2100 feet of rhodium colored copper chain, with sterling silver joints," Fedner shared on Instagram. She also shared that the look had extra meaning because she was a Ukrainian refugee who made the look for Kravitz, who is part Ukrainian.

He paired this with Yves Saint Laurent leather pants, matching knee-high heeled boots, and his signature sunglasses.

Kravitz changed into another glam-rock look for a surprise high-energy performance of his song "Are You Gonna Go My Way" with H.E.R. and Travis Barker.

He wore a gold leather jumpsuit by Chrome Hearts with a wrap-around studded belt, silver heeled boots, and layers of chain necklaces.

Billy Porter is hands-down a fashion icon. His androgynous style is always over-the-top and a conversation starter at award shows.

At the Grammys, he wore a bright-pink Valentino ensemble consisting of a sheer ruffle-lined top with a long train, high-waisted trousers, and opera gloves. With a bold blue lip, Porter was styled with a silver clutch and metallic platform boots.

"The color of the season I hear is fuchsia and Valentino sent this over for me to wear from the runway. So you have to say yes to that," Porter told Laverne Cox on the red carpet.

When he presented best R&B album during the show, he added a matching pink floor-length cape over his look.

Silk Sonic's Anderson .Paak and Bruno Mars looked like they stepped out of the '70s at the 2022 Grammys. After opening the show with their song "777" in matching white bedazzled jumpsuits, the singers changed outfits.

When the duo won song of the year for "Leave The Door Open," they rose from their seats and started grooving. .Paak was in a striking Gucci look consisting of a dark-green velvet suit, pink plaid wide-collared shirt, orange-tinted sunglasses, and an outrageous bowl-cut wig.

Onstage, he zipped up the open fly on his pants.

Silk Sonic went on to have a clean sweep, winning all three awards they were nominated for.

Grammy nominee Finneas O'Connell showed up to the Grammys in a shiny mauve and beige three-piece Gucci suit with a unique black button-down shirt with a white collar. O'Connell's jacket lapel was also adorned with an oversized faux corsage.

On the red carpet, he spoke to Laverne Cox about his and girlfriend Claudia Sulewski's coordinated suits. "I feel like we look like Easter eggs," he said.

Insider's Maria Noyen wrote, "O'Connell looked more like he was going to a 1980s prom than a prestigious music award ceremony."

The musician performed "Happier Than Ever" later in the night in an all-black look with his sister, Billie Eilish.

Grammy nominee Leon Bridges wore a '70s Western-style suit for the show. The cream cropped jacket and trousers embellished with floral designs made from metallic threads and pearls were created by The Pack. He also wore yellow-tinged sunglasses, a Bulgari choker necklace, and custom cowboy boots.

Grammy-nominated music producer and songwriter Benny Blanco wore an upscale peacock-blue tracksuit on the red carpet. The gold floral embroidery detailing and placement made it stand out. His Doc Martens Oxford shoes also looked to have hand-painted flowers on them.

Lil Nas X had some of the best style moments of the night, wearing five daring looks.

To walk the red carpet, the rapper wore a Balmain look, which was inspired by the fashion house's iconic baroque embroidered dress that debuted 10 years ago, and which Kim Kardashian famously wore.

Lil Nas X had blue eyeshadow to complement the ensemble's pearl-encrusted detailing and butterfly images on his jacket's chest, sleeves, and back panel.

"The Balmain Atelier crafted a new butterfly centerpiece, reflecting the key symbol and central message of the Montero album," according to the brand's Instagram post.

To perform a medley of his songs solo and with rapper Jack Harlow, Lil Nas X was styled again in looks by Balmain.

He started out in a sparkling black cape and trousers before disrobing to reveal a sheer crystal-adorned asymmetrical crop top. This also showed off the crystal side detailing down his pants.

The singer's last costume change was into a dazzling marching band-style uniform.

For the remainder of the show, in which the rapper was nominated for five Grammys, he wore a Balmain gold armor-style vest – reminiscent of Iron Man's chest plate – over a black suit.

Balmain's creative director Olivier Rousteing told Vogue, "This is obviously a dream to work with, because he's really paying attention to the craftsmanship. He brings couture to the stage and red carpet in such a modern way."

Although the rapper didn't leave with any of the Grammy awards he was nominated for, he did steal the night, fashion-wise.

Singer-songwriter Lucky Daye attended the 2022 Grammys in a bright mint-green suit with a matching relaxed, unbuttoned shirt. He also wore unique green woven shoes.

That night, he took home his first Grammy for best progressive R&B album for "Table for Two."

Grammy nominee Giveon showed up to the award show in a black and silver tweed custom Chanel ensemble that twinkled under the light. The jacket had silver Chanel emblem buttons. Giveon's look was also styled with layers of silver necklaces.

The singer later changed into a dazzling graphic cardigan for a performance of "Peaches" with Justin Bieber and Daniel Caesar.

Ben Platt and his boyfriend, Noah Galvin, made their award show red-carpet debut at the 2022 Grammys.

Galvin, "The Good Doctor" actor, wore a dark grey blazer with matching high-waisted Bermuda shorts. He also wore a T-shirt with a screen print of nine-time Grammy winner Barbra Streisand's face on it. He finished off the look with light-blue dress socks and black loafers.

That night, Platt performed alongside Broadway and musical stars Cynthia Erivo, Leslie Odom Jr., and Rachel Zegler for the in memoriam segment.

Coming into the 2022 Grammys with the most nominations of any artist — 11 — and winning four prior to the show, Jon Batiste made sure his outfits were on point for his big day.

A Louisiana native, Batiste's custom Dolce & Gabbana diamond-pattern look was a nod towards his roots.

"These are New Orleans Saints colors, black and gold," he said of his sequined look on the red carpet. "I wanted to bring home with me on the carpet."

His family and grandfather attended the event with him.

"For him to see me today wearing these New Orleans colors … What can I say? I'm just blessed," Batiste said.

Batiste performed his Grammy-winning song "Freedom." Never without a smile on his face, Batiste's costumes were just as bright and cheery.

Dolce & Gabbana's team were onsite at the MGM Grand to create custom costumes for Batiste and his backup dancers. To start the performance, Batiste wore a 15-foot cape, as his stylist Ugo Mozie told The Hollywood Reporter.

Batiste then took off the cape to reveal a textured, metallic icy-blue suit with a shimmering turtleneck.

In a shock to many, including Batiste himself, the singer took home one of the biggest awards of the night: album of the year for "We Are."

To accept his award, he wore a "bespoke black cape with crystal chandelier embroidery" by Alexander McQueen, according to the brand's Instagram post. The dramatic piece dripped in crystals.

Batiste won a total of five Grammys: best music video for "Freedom," best score soundtrack for visual media for "Soul," best American roots song and best American roots performance both for "Cry," and album of the year for "We Are."

Rapper London on da Track wore a KYLE'LYK ensemble to the show. The sleeveless, long leather trench coat with red accents and a smoke-print shirt was very sleek.

On his Instagram, the rapper showed a reference photo of Wesley Snipes' character's look in "Blade II."

Rapper, singer, and songwriter Jidenna had credits on Doja Cat's Grammy-nominated "Planet Her" album.

For the occasion, he chose a bold print reminiscent of a '70s upholstered couch. He wore a sleeveless button-down dress with matching trousers by Kenneth Nichelson, "a luxury brand liberating the boundaries of men's wear."

His orange ombre boots added extra drama.
