Mariah Carey opts for Old Hollywood glam at AMAs 50th Anniversary Special
Mariah Carey recently wore a stunning strapless Schiaparelli gown to the AMAs 50th Anniversary Special. She was set to perform a medley of songs from her album “The Emancipation of Mimi.” The singer-songwriter delivered a powerful performance, melodiously singing “We Belong Together,” which was the top track on Billboard Hot 100 for about 14 weeks.
Carey’s Schiaparelli gown featured a draped bodice to capture the Old Hollywood charm of the fit. The ensemble was as glamorous as can be with a sweeping floor-length train. According to WWD, the Schiaparelli piece made use of ecru satin and black velvet to introduce a variety of textures to the look. She further elevated the Old Hollywood glam with diamond-encrusted jewelry. Her jewelry pieces were a part of a dazzling set, consisting of a necklace, earrings, and bracelets for each wrist.
However, the look wouldn’t be complete without Mariah Carey’s honey blonde hair styled in dramatic waves. The side bangs added a flair to the overall look, further elevating the Old Hollywood charm of her fit. For makeup, the singer kept it minimalistic, opting for a bronze eyeshadow with a hint of smokey eye look. Her coral blush and glossy nude lip color also didn’t draw attention away from her outfit and jewelry while adding some color to her cheeks and lips.
The audience was moved by Mariah Carey’s powerful vocals at the AMAs 50th Anniversary Special. Many sang along to her song word by word while others enjoyed the performance while clasping their hearts.
