So it should come as no surprise that the dress she chose for the [62nd Annual Grammy Awards](https://time.com/5772016/grammys-2020-recap/) was a star in its own right. Ahead of performing a medley of songs from her 2019 album _Thank U, Next_ at Sunday’s awards show, Grande walked the Staples Center red carpet in a [custom Giambattista Valli](https://www.vogue.com/vogueworld/article/ariana-grande-grammys-red-carpet-giambattista-valli-schiaparelli) dove gray gown complete with a layered tulle skirt and matching satin opera gloves. Can you say Cinderella? The billowing ballgown of course caught the eye of many watching from home, some of whom took to social media to gush over the dreamy ensemble. > [](https://twitter.com/Booth/status/1221578039668068352) > [](https://twitter.com/TheCut/status/1221576267486650368) > [](https://twitter.com/alex%5Fabads/status/1221581214961848321) > [](https://twitter.com/jordanverroi/status/1221581186797113347) > [](https://twitter.com/lavendersdiors/status/1221582831970738176) And Arianators weren’t done for the night. Grande’s fans also loved her reaction to Album of the Year winner Billie Eilish saying that Ariana was the one who deserved the award during her acceptance speech.
