Compared to most of the other ladies’ outfits this evening at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, CA on Sunday, January 31, 2010, Ciara‘s Givenchy number complemented by Cartier jewelry was looking pretty good. But not that good. The more avant-garde ensemble was a bit too ornate especially on top (are those pipe cleaners?). Yet again, these Grammy girls have me very confused. Why is this dress shear on bottom? Why is she wearing a one-piece bathing suit under it? This outfit leaves me with more questions than answers. I’m glad to see her wearing more clothes than usual though! Ciara was nominated this evening with Justin Timberlake for Best Pop Collaboration With Vocals.
