Country music's wildest party, the 2023 ACM Awards, landed in Texas on Thursday and the stars did not disappoint on the black carpet.
Despite a major last-minute change after one act was forced to cancel their performance, country music's biggest stars donned their most show-stopping outfits for a night to remember. The likes of Miranda Lambert, Lainey Wilson, Carly Pearce, Ashley McBryde and so many more graced the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco in jaw-dropping looks – think figure-hugging dresses, bold colors, sequins, and plenty of fringe detailing.
And as if showcasing their flamboyant fashion wasn't enough, many also took to the stage for a memorable performance, with the incredible line-up including Jason Aldean, Kane Brown, Luke Combs, Cody Johnson, Dolly Parton, Jelly Roll, Keith Urban, and Ed Sheeran, who made his ACM Awards debut.
