Alicia Keys wore one of the most glamorous outfits on the green carpet at Sunday night’s Grammy Awards. (The carpet was green instead of red because of Heineken’s sponsorship of the program at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.)

“She looked amazing,” Glamour Magazine editor-in-chief Cindi Leive said on The Early Show, offering her review, along with stylist to the stars David Evangelista.

Keys wore a full-length white satin gown with thick gold straps and a bare back. The dress, paired with simple dangling earrings and sparkling gold eye makeup, made for a sophisticated look that was sexy in its demureness.

Leive noted, “We are so used to seeing her with the braids and she often wears a hat. And she was wearing this white Roberto Cavalli dress with all of those golden sashes that went well with all the statues she won.”

Evangelista agreed, “It wasn’t trying too hard. It was soft and pretty. It was Grammy. That was the right way to do it with a Cavalli gown.”

Beyonce Knowles and Eve also wore Cavalli, but did not get the same review. “It was too Oscary for me,” noted Evangelista about Knowles’ gown. “This is the Grammys,” he exclaimed.
