Fashion
At the 2014 CMT Music Awards, Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, Kristen Bell, and More Looked Hotter Than Ever
Gone are the days when every country music awards show was full of worn-in denim, fringe-pocket shirts, and cowboy boots. (Actually, I'm not sure those days ever existed, except for in my mind.) But now when the country crowd comes out for the evening, they're dressed to the nines in their shiniest, sparkliest, and sexiest ensembles — and Wednesday night's CMT Music Awards was certainly no exception. Country crooners like Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, Kacey Musgraves, and more hit the red carpet alongside stars like Nicole Kidman and Brooklyn Decker, all of who were decked out in some of their hottest and most glam looks to date. Ready to be impressed? Then click through to see all of the best outfits of the evening.
Kristen Bell
The host of the show looked nothing less than phenomenal in her plunging, mermaid-scale Zuhair Murad gown, which she made all the more alluring with wavy locks and a smoky stare.
Nicole Kidman
Kidman showed up to support hubby Keith Urban in a simple, floral-print Giambattista Valli mini dress that showed off all her curves and a lot of leg.
Kate Walsh
The actress was the picture of elegance in her pom pom–studded and embroidered Naeem Khan gown, which she punctuated with black pumps and dangling emerald earrings.
LeAnn Rimes
Rimes had a total Angelina moment when she and her sexy legs stepped out on the red carpet in this stunning Rani Zakhem gown (which showed plenty of skin up top, too).
Beth Behrs
Behrs loves a voluminous silhouette — like this one from Erin Fetherston — and as cute as she looks in them, I can’t say I blame her.
Brooklyn Decker
The model-turned-actress kept it simple and sweet with a stark white Jill Stuart dress, natural makeup, and matching black earrings and pumps.
Jennifer Nettles
In her beaded shell and wide-leg trousers — both from Halston Heritage — it would have been impossible for Nettles to look any sleeker on the red carpet.
Kellie Pickler
Pickler was one of the few stars to wear major color on the red carpet, which is just one of many reasons her super-sexy Lorena Sarbu gown won’t soon be forgotten.
Kacey Musgraves
The up-and-comer kept it fairly tame at the annual awards show, letting her jeweled bustline and full, satin skirt do all the talking.
Jana Kramer
I don’t know what’s better: The down-to-there neckline and amazing train on Kramer’s watermelon pink dress, or the way she’s totally working it on the red carpet.
Jessie James
Making her first red carpet appearance as a new mom, James flaunted her envious curves in a basic black wrap dress, which she paired with a patterned clutch and platform pumps.
