Musgraves stunned fans with her outfit, which was completely out of character for the country star. She even arrived in a real version of Barbie’s signature pink convertible.
“Nothing but respect for my Moschino Barbie,” said one fan.
“You won the night,” tweeted one fan.
“I’m not exaggerating when I say this look changed my life,” tweeted another.
The Texan also showed off more of her outfits on Twitter, giving fans a look from all angles.

“WENT CAMPING,” she wrote alongside another post.
Musgraves is becoming accustomed to taking chances. The 30-year-old won numerous awards for her recent Golden Hour record, including two Grammy Awards, an ACM Award and a CMA Award. The album definitely blurred the genre lines, which was exactly what Musgraves intended.
“I feel like I’ve been pushing buttons since 1988. I’ve never gratuitously pushed buttons. Pushing a button for the sake of pushing a button, I’ve never been into that,” Musgraves recently shared with PopCulture.com and other media. “This album, I think, is more special to me and has resonated with more people because I had the courage and the confidence to share more of my personal feelings on this record. I think in other albums I was more focused on observing the world around me. On this one, I felt like I wanted to share a little bit more of me and how I feel.
“I was really inspired to make an album kind of celebrating this really beautiful side of life that I feel it can get lost in the shuffle these days with all that’s going online,” she remarked. “Right now, we need music more than ever. This album was a little bit of a hiding place for me and a little bit of a bright spot, reflecting on all the wonderful changes that happened in my life. It’s really exciting that other people feel the same way and have shared it.”
