The night’s co-host brings big-city style to Nashville in a curve-hugging, strapless, gray tulle gown by Talbot Runhof, with a Swarovski clutch.
Before making her live country music singing debut, the Country Strong actress fits in just fine on the carpet, looking the part of a singing superstar in her one-shoulder degradeé effect Atelier Versace gown and Eliane Fattal for S.J. Phillips earring.
Leave it to the female vocalist of the year nominee to bring along her red-hot status in the form of a custom scarlet gown by Monique Lhuillier, Neil Lane jewels and Jimmy Choo shoes.

Gwyneth’s Country Strong costar is right on trend in a trailing, draped Emilio Pucci gown, Cathy Waterman jewelry and Jimmy Choo sandals.

“I’ve come to the realization that I’m not a gown girl – I’m a leg girl,” the Twenty8Twelve mini-clad singer tells PEOPLE. “I would rather show my legs than my arms. I would rather have a skimpy, tight, form-fitting dress than to show off my arms.”
Kimberly stands by her man, offering stylish support for her triple-nominated husband Brad Paisley in a blue satin David Meister gown, embellished at the hip.
Little Big Town’s chanteuses are twice as fun as they pose side-by-side, with Kimberly in chic all-black and Karen in red velvet. Both carry clutches by Judith Leiber.
