Mariah Carey stepped out in a bold bronze look at the 2024 Recording Academy Honors in Los Angeles Thursday night, showing off some skin in a plunging corseted bodysuit and a piece of sheer material wrapped around herself on the red carpet.
The “Honey” singer, 54, certainly made a fashion statement in her barely-there Schiaparelli look at the event, which was held at the Fairmount Century Plaza and presented by the Black Music Collective.
Her ‘fit came straight off the Italian brand’s spring/summer 2023 runway, with the look consisting of a champagne-hued satin bodysuit with boning and a sheer bronze tulle overlay.
The fabric wrapped around her bust and gathered at the waist, twisting around to form a voluminous peplum at the side.

The “Butterfly” singer kept the bronze theme going with glittering brown pumps, accessorizing with a dazzling wraparound choker, enormous diamond drop earrings, a sparkling ear cuff and two coordinating bracelets.
Carey — who broke up with her longtime boyfriend, Bryan Tanaka, in late 2023 — styled her hair in glamorous waves, wearing shimmery eye makeup and glossy pink lips with a baby pink manicure.
Fashion fans had plenty to say on Check the Tag’s Instagram post documenting the look, like one who wrote, “YES finally a stunning runway look for Mariah! 🤎🤎🤎.”
“It’s giving the Butterfly album cover ! 🤎🤎🤎” another added, while a third follower commented, “this is obviously MADE for her. #perfection 🤎🧡🤎.”
Others weren’t as into her red carpet moment, like one who wrote, “Why Mariah’s dress look like a knock-off 💀” comparing the singer’s look to the runway photo. “It’s giving when you see it online vs when you got it in the mail 💀.”
“This looks like a wardrobe malfunction” another fan commented.
Carey has never been scared to rock an over-the-top look, whether she’s wearing a sequined gown for a dip in a hot tub or shopping in a tiny ballerina skirt — and with the Grammys just days away, our fingers are crossed for another sassy Mariah moment.
