Zara Larsson Is 'Literal Sunshine' In Shimmering Grammy Awards Look

Zara Larsson’s glow at the 68th Grammy Awards rivaled the sun itself.

The pop star turned heads on the red carpet with a bold, radiant look, then backed it up on stage with a beautiful acoustic performance of her Grammy-nominated track, “Midnight Sun.” With her fashion and vocals, Larsson became one of the most memorable stars of the night.

Zara Larsson attended the annual awards ceremony on Sunday, February 1, as a first-time nominee. She wore a custom Sunny Couture look by designer Kevin Germanier that perfectly reflected the theme of her song, “Midnight Sun.”

The ensemble featured a glittery golden-yellow asymmetric bra top paired with a matching low-rise maxi skirt that shimmered under the lights. During her performance, she added a waist piece designed to mimic the rays of sunlight, bringing the concept fully to life on stage.

She accessorized with Swarovski jewels, golden manicure, and her long blonde hair in cascading mermaid waves.

On February 2, Zara Larsson shared a 14-slide carousel highlighting her Grammy look, including her first-ever Glambot appearance, which fans called the “best one.”

The post racked up more than 380,000 likes and over 2,000 comments in just 12 hours. “Our Swedish princess,” one fan called affectionately. Another described her as “literal sunshine.”

Many fans also offered encouragement following her Grammy loss. “We love you,” one fan started, adding, “You’re a Grammy winner in my book, we’ll get you an official one next year, I know it!”

Beyond fashion, Zara Larsson impressed viewers with her acoustic performance of “Midnight Sun” during the ceremony. Fans praised her raw vocals, with many admitting they were surprised by the depth and power of her voice.

On an X repost of her performance, someone commented, “She literally sounds like an angel.” A fanpage repost on Instagram had fans gushing. A fan wrote, “She’s easily the best female singer of this generation.” “Best dressed and best vocalist of the night,” another added.

Before the official awards ceremony, Zara Larsson joined fellow stars like Tyla and Lara Raj at a Grammy weekend kickoff party on Friday, January 30. Epic Records, in partnership with Hennessy, hosted the event at West Hollywood’s Sunset Tower Hotel in Los Angeles.

Larsson arrived in a hot pink, sheer gown with a deep plunging neckline that revealed a pink bralette underneath. The gauzy fabric also gave a glimpse of matching pink panties, while her blonde hair provided a striking contrast to the monochromatic look.

Zara Larsson is known for embracing bold, colorful, sparkly, and glamorous fashion, often leaning into Y2K revival style with sequins, rhinestones, mini skirts, crop tops, and glitter makeup. She brought all of these on “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” where she appeared as a guest judge in an episode released on January 30.

Larsson wore a rhinestone-embellished silver crop top with a purple “ZEN” across the chest, paired with a matching miniskirt heavily bedazzled with an array of dangling trinkets, charms, and colorful pendants.

Sky-high glittery platform heels added extra height and shine to the look. Larsson accessorized with oversized hoop earrings, a multicolored charm necklace, multiple bracelets, and rings. Her blonde hair was styled with intentional high volume to amplify the overall glamorous look.

The appearance prompted many fans to tune in, an expression of their love and support for the star.
