Days after their Grammys appearance, executive producer Raj Kapoor, who worked on the ceremony, told PEOPLE that “artistic black-tie” is thedress code listed for the show’s guests, adding, “but in the music industry, I guess that’s up for interpretation.”
“Obviously there is a dress code for anybody actually performing on the show that we have to adhere to standards and practices. But as far as people attending and nominees attending, that would be something the [Recording] Academy [who presents the Grammys] would have to answer,” said Kapoor, who is returning to the2025 Oscarson March 2 as an executive producer and showrunner.
The advisory states “buttocks and female breasts” should be “adequately covered,” sheer or see-through clothing that “could possibly expose female breast nipples” be avoided in addition to “exposing bare fleshy under curves of the buttock and buttock crack.” The statement also requires that the “genital region is adequately covered so that there is no visible ‘puffy’ bare skin exposure.”
