An executive producer for the Grammys has now clarified the event's dress code after Kanye West and Bianca Censori's invisible dress stunt.
Now the Grammys are traditionally an evening which celebrates the biggest and best the industry has to offer, however this was completely overshadowed by 30-year-old Censori's choice of dress.
Although you could certainly argue that outfit could hardly be considered a dress.

While walking the red carpet Censori dropped her fur coat in front of photographers to reveal the sheer dress, which she had paired with her very naked body.
The outfit choice was apparently in reference to Ye's Grammy nominated Vultures 1 album cover, which depicts a naked woman from behind stood next to a man in all black.
West and Censori's decision to give us all an eyeful has since become a major talking point around the world - with many questioning what the event's dress code is supposed to be.
Speaking to PEOPLE, Grammys executive producer Raj Kapoor clarified that celebrities are informed the event is 'artistic black-tie'. Which certainly explains Jaden Smith's 'suit paired with a foam castle on the head' moment, but could this feasibly be stretched to a sheer dress?
"But in the music industry, I guess that's up for interpretation," he added. Because if there's one thing you can count on musicians and celebrities to do, it's to get inventive with a dress code.

"Obviously there is a dress code for anybody actually performing on the show that we have to adhere to standards and practices," Kapoor further explained.
"But as far as people attending and nominees attending, that would be something the [Recording] Academy [which presents the Grammys] would have to answer."
Meanwhile there has been plenty of speculation as to whether or not Censori would face legal repercussions for her dress, which fails in the most basic principle of being a dress, due to the fact that her entire naked body was on show.
However it would appear the Australian is in the clear over the stunt.

According to TMZ, the Los Angeles Police Department didn't receive any complaints over the dress from anyone in attendance at the show and, with the Grammys being a private event, that would mean Censori is safe.
Further clarifying Los Angeles law, lawyer Andrea Oguntula, told Page Six: "While Ms. Censori’s outfit undoubtedly pushed the envelope, a charge of indecent exposure in California requires willful public exposure of one’s genitals with the specific intent to offend or sexually arouse.
"It’s theoretically possible, but unlikely she’ll face any criminal prosecution for this incident,"
