Singer goes home empty-handed but wins over all fashion critics

Ahead of the 2013 Grammy Awards, CBS, which aired the gala live, issued a wardrobe advisory to all stars that they were to keep their outfits decent, not too revealing. Carly Rae Jepsen did more than that: she killed it!

Check out the video above to see the 27-year-old singer on the red carpet, talking to Ryan Seacrest about her amazing gown and how hard it was for her to pick it.

Carly wore a shimmering – and stunning – black Roberto Cavalli gown which fitted her like a glove, kept her covered and made her one of the best dressed ladies of the night.

She compared the day she came across it to the moment when Ariel of “The Little Mermaid” got her legs.

The singer accessorized with Jerome C. Rousseau shoes and H. Stern jewelry, and, by the looks of the video, was truly happy to be there.
