Stars on the 2023 CMA Awards Red Carpet

Country music's biggest night was full of red carpet sparkle. The 57th annual CMA Awards took over Nashville's Bridgestone Arena on Wednesday night, with Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning back as hosts.

Morgan Wallen, Kelsea Ballerini and Luke Combs were among the night's performers, and Lainey Wilson was the big winner, taking home Entertainer of the Year. Red gowns were the trend of the night, and plenty of stars brought their own twist. It was a strong night for fashion, just like the 2023 VMAs red carpet a couple of months ago.

Here are the looks we loved.
