The 55th Annual Grammy Awards are this Sunday and I can't wait to see what some of our favorite celebs are going to be wearing. As much as I love music, I'll admit what really gets me watching the big show is the amazing red carpet fashion. It's one of the few red carpet events where we get to see the stars really let loose with their style. But now with the new Grammy Award dress code that's set to be enforced this year, I'm curious to see who'll be showing up in a completely outrageous ensemble and who'll go for head-toe-glam.
Producers have already sent out detailed guidelines to this year's nominees and attendees advising that they dress "properly" to this Sunday's show in an obvious attempt to avoid any crazy wardrobe malfunctions. Some of the wild duds on the no-fly memo are no butt cracks, no thongs, no sheer dresses, no exposed nipples, no bare sides and no side boobs.

That's a whole lot of fashion rules if you ask me, especially considering that some of the best red-carpet moments of the past have been those over-the-top styles, like the super suggestive Versace dress J.Lo wore at the 2000 Grammy awards. How can we forget that one? In honor of this year's awards let's step back into the past and check out some of the most iconic fashion moments from the big show!

Jennifer Lopez 2000
Whether you loved it or hated it, you can’t deny that J.Lo looked absolutely amazing in this barely-there Versace gown. One thing for sure, her notorious fashion statement definitely went down in style history.
Christina Aguilera 2001
The pop icon attended the 41st Grammy Awards in a super revealing Trish Summerville dress and multi-colored braids. I have to admit as crazy as this combo may seem, she definitely worked it!
Christina Milian 2006
The “Dip it low” singer hit the 48th Grammys' red carpet in a risqué gown that showed off her rock hard abs. At least her hair and makeup looked great!
Shakira 2007
Shakira blew us away with a "Hips Don’t Lie" performance alongside Wyclef Jean at the 49th Annual Grammys. But I wasn’t really loving her head-to-toe red ensemble.
Nelly Furtado 2008
Nelly Furtado looked unrecognizable at the 2008 Grammys rocking a short blonde bob. The bright blue Arthur Mendoza gown flattered her amazing figure.
Selena Gomez 2011
The young singer-actress looked all grown up walking the red carpet in a shimmery and sophisticated J.Mendel gown. Soft, loose waves gave it a glamorous touch.
Esperanza Spalding 2011
The talented jazz musician had a glorious night winning a Grammy for Best New Artist. She showed off her eclectic style wearing a neon tiered halter gown and pale pink platform heels.
Jennifer Lopez 2011
Jennifer Lopez showed off some seriously toned legs at the 2011 Latin Grammys. The glamorous Emilio Pucci dress paired perfectly with those sky-high Christian Louboutins.
Naya Rivera 2011
The Glee actress looked stunning in a silver avant-garde dress (that featured a long train), platform pumps, and a retro faux bob style.
