Chappell Roan is laughing off all the commotion her bold 2026 Grammys dress has caused.

The singer shared pics of her in the sheer, burgundy Mugler dress she wore Sunday on Instagram. The wild look showed plenty of skin and was attached to her body via bedazzled faux piercings.

But Roan insisted the dress was not “that outrageous” of a choice.

“Giggling because I don’t even think this is THAT outrageous of an outfit,” she wrote. “The look’s actually so awesome and weird.”

“I recommend just exercising your free will it’s really fun and silly :D,” she continued. “Thank you for having me @grammys and those who voted for me!!”

Many of her fans agreed with her sentiment in the comments section, writing that her Grammys look was “the coolest” and “simply perfect.”

The “Hot to Go” singer was up for two Grammys on Sunday — Record of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance, both for “The Subway” — but went home empty-handed.

Record of the Year went to Kendrick Lamar’s “Luther” and Best Pop Solo Performance went to Lola Young’s “Messy.”

Still, Roan, 27, had one of the most talked-about dresses of the night.

Aside from it being revealing, the style also allowed her to show off a lot of temporary body art, including a pony drawing on her chest and a giant temporary tattoo of a lace design on her back.

Roan credited artist Jenny Collins for the tattoos, who goes by Puppy Puppy Playtime.

The “Pink Pony Club” songstress also accessorized with statement jewelry by Buccellati which included a gold choker and matching gold drop earrings.

She covered up the body art in a few red carpet pics, opting to rock a matching sheer, burgundy cape.

The musician is known for her bold personal style and made waves at the 2025 Grammys as well in a vintage Jean Paul Gaultier ballgown.
