Banned: CBS sent a Wardrobe Advisory to Grammy attendees, banning
outfits like Lady Gaga's that 'expose bare buttocks,' and 'be sure the
genital region is adequately covered - no visible “puffy” bare skin
exposure'
The email which was leaked to Deadline and came attached with an image
of Pink performing in a barely-there costume at the 2010 Grammys, added:
'Thong type costumes are problematic.


Unacceptable vs. acceptable: Toni Braxton's 2001 Grammy outfit breaks
all CBS' new wardrobe policy (left), however Beyonce's 2008 backless
dress, showing no breasts or buttocks would pass (right)


Bare-all vs. bare a little: Plunging necklines (like J. Lo's famous
Versace dress, left) are banned because they 'bare sides or under
curvature of the breasts,' but Nelly Furtado's V-neck dress gets the go
ahead (right)
The requirements, directed mostly at female awards attendees, also
include the specific instruction to 'avoid sheer see-through clothing
that could possibly expose female breast nipples.'


Sheer tops: The requirements also instruct women to 'avoid see-through
clothing that could possibly expose female breast nipples' (like Terry
Thatcher, left) but it is unclear if a bra worn underneath is ok
(Fergie, right)


Women only? The requirements, directed mostly at female attendees, ask
that 'buttocks and female breasts are adequately covered' - Christina
Agularia (left) might not pass, but Eva Longoria (right) would scrap
through


Too much vs. just right: Singer Nadeea at the Grammy Awards in 2010
baring too much breast according to the new wardrobe standards (left);
whereas Taylor Swift's similarly cut dress would be deemed acceptable
However, those modest few who like to use the red-carpet as a sounding
board for meaningful (or provocative) statements will also have to tow
the line.
