Kacey Musgraves has evolved her style from Western casual to designer chic.
She once wore a mix of colorful jeans, classic cowboy boots, and patriotic tops.
Her current wardrobe, however, features more feathered hats and crystal-covered dresses.
On her 2018 album "Golden Hour," Kacey Musgraves famously sings about being "all right with a slow burn" life.
She's seemingly taken the same approach to her fashion, too.
After entering the music scene over a decade ago in colorful jeans and cowboy boots, Musgraves slowly became a fashion superstar.
Now, her wardrobe consists of feathered hats, crystal-covered dresses, and bold accessories.
Here's a look at how her style has evolved over the years.
When Kacey Musgraves entered the music scene, she did so wearing colorful jeans and cowboy boots.

One of her earliest appearances was in 2013 at the SiriusXM Studios in New York City.
She wore red jeans, brown cowboy boots, and a denim button-up shirt for the occasion, creating a casual and classic country look.
Musgraves then accessorized with gold hoop earrings, a silver nose ring, and an assortment of bangles.
She quickly developed a red-carpet style that was feminine and retro.

When Musgraves walked the red carpet at the 2014 CMA Awards, she was photographed wearing a pink, short-sleeved gown designed by Oscar de la Renta.
It had mesh paneling across the neckline and silver sparkles decorating the gown from top to bottom.
However, it was the musician's sky-high hair that stole the show. She wore a '60s-inspired beehive with modern highlights — a style that became her go-to that year.
Musgraves went full Americana with her outfits in 2015.

The outfit she wore to perform at Stagecoach that year is just one example.
For the concert, she wore an American flag bralette, a fringe miniskirt, and blue bedazzled cowboy boots. Her accessories included sparkling tights, oversize hoop earrings, and statement red sunglasses.
It was relaxed, casual, and patriotic — as were many of her ensembles in 2015.
The "Pageant Material" musician later blended glamorous and alternative styles.

Her former aesthetic was on display at the 2016 CMA Awards, where she wore a custom Christian Siriano ballgown.
The lavender dress was strapless, crafted from tiers of tulle, and completed with a black waistband.
To contrast its elegance, Musgraves wore it with smoky eye makeup and deep-purple lipstick.
The singer experimented with high-fashion designs in 2018.

Musgraves has been wearing designer ensembles since the start of her career. But she took things to another level in 2018, specifically at the CMA Awards.
She walked the red carpet that year in black trousers and a mesh blouse designed by Versace.
The Western-inspired top had only a single button, creating a deep slit in the shirt's center. It was also embellished with gold Swarovski crystals across its sleeves, shoulders, and chest.
The next few years were all about taking fashion risks, leading Musgraves to really come into her own around 2021.
