Willow Smith made a striking impression on the red carpet at the 2025 Grammy Awards, held at the Crypto.com Arena, but all eyes quickly turned to her brother Jaden, thanks to his bizarre outfit choice in Los Angeles.
Known for their bold and unconventional fashion choices, the siblings ensured all eyes were on them as they arrived in show-stopping outfits. However, it was the Karate Kid star’s extravagant headpiece that truly stole the spotlight, overshadowing even their father, Will Smith.
Willow, aged 24, embraced an edgy, gothic-inspired ensemble that consisted of a black bra and matching shorts, complemented by a long black coat from Alexander McQueen’s Fall-Winter 2024 collection.
And to finally complete her daring look, she accessorized the outfit with platform sandals featuring crystal-adorned straps, multiple statement rings, and metallic grills with a striking green accent.
Meanwhile Jaden, aged 26, opted for a classic black Louis Vuitton tuxedo but took his outfit to the next level with a dramatic headdress-an intricate black castle that towered above him, which was designed by the firm Abodi Transylvania.
The avant-garde piece was inspired by the gothic architecture of Transylvania and the eerie legends surrounding the infamous Bathory family, known for their dark vampire folklore. The $4,500 creation immediately became one of the most talked-about statements of the night.
Will Smith returns to public eye
Beyond their bold fashion choices, the Smith siblings had significant reasons for attending the ceremony. Willow, who performs under the moniker WILLOW, received two nominations: Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical, for her 2024 album Empathogen, and Best Arrangement, Instrumental and Vocal, for her song Big Feelings.
Meanwhile, Willow‘s father, Will, took the stage for a poignant tribute to the legendary Quincy Jones, who passed away on November 3, 2024, in his first major appearance since the infamous 2022 Oscars incident, when he slapped Chris Rock.
The Smith family’s presence at the ceremony was also a reflection of their continued unity, following their Thanksgiving 2024 celebration, which included Trey Smith, Will’s eldest son, and his ex-wife, Sheree Zampino.
