Recently, Mariah Carey was honored with a special award by the Recording Academy — a long-awaited moment of recognition in her legendary career. But instead of headlines celebrating the achievement, all eyes turned to her bold outfit. At 54, Mariah stole the spotlight not just for her music, but for her daring and glamorous fashion choice that had everyone talking.
At the third annual Recording Academy Honors, Mariah Carey made a bold fashion statement in a daring and unconventional outfit. She wore a form-fitting cream corset, elegantly paired with sheer caramel tulle accents that beautifully sculpted her silhouette.
The eye-catching ensemble featured a plunging neckline that drew attention to her curves, while the sheer lower half subtly revealed her toned legs, adding a touch of dramatic flair to her red carpet look.
Mariah shared her words of appreciation in her social media and posted series of photos in the chosen outfit made not by professional photographers. She immediately got a lot of support from followers and other celebrities:

While many fans praised Mariah Carey for her bold and glamorous look, some online critics felt the outfit wasn’t age-appropriate.
One comment remarked, “Maybe this would’ve worked in the early ’90s, Mariah, but it’s not really something to wear at 54.” Another added, “There comes a time when you should just cover up a bit more…” A third person bluntly stated, “Someone should remind her she’s 54, not 24.”
Recently, many celebrities have been proving that age is just a number when it comes to fashion. Icons like Nicole Kidman and JLo are redefining style rules, showing the world that women can wear whatever makes them feel confident and empowered—at any stage of life. Their fearless fashion choices are not just bold statements, but reminders that true beauty comes from being comfortable in your own skin. It’s an inspiring shift that encourages women everywhere to embrace their personal style without limitations.
