The 2025 American Music Awards kicked off on Monday night, May 26, at the BleauLive Theater at Fontainebleau Las Vegas. Megan Moroney was among the stars in attendance, and the country star came dressed to the nines.
Moroney wore a silver crochet-style halter dress with intricate cut-out patterns, featuring a strapless bodice and a high-waisted skirt with open latticework. She paired the look with silver heels and accessorized with several diamond rings and earrings.
She then opted to style her hair in a high, voluminous ponytail with loose, cascading waves, featuring soft, face-framing tendrils. In videos shared online, the singer could be seen walking the red carpet ahead of the awards ceremony, posing for pictures.
Netizens then shared their reactions, with many likening her gown to crochet-style bedding. "I don't like it. Looks like a crocheted blanket," one Facebook commenter wrote. "Her dress looks like Granny's crochet bedspread," another remarked.
"Looks like she took it off her grandma's coffee table!" a viewer exclaimed. Some took a more neutral stance, as one person noted, "She is pretty, but I'm not a fan of doily patterned dresses on anyone."
"At least she's wearing something other than a see thru with what looks like just underwear," another viewer added.
