Billie Eilish’s single “Wildflower” earned nominations in two of the Grammys’ biggest categories this evening: Record of the Year and Song of the Year. The singer returned to the ceremony embodying her signature edgy style, wearing an ensemble by HODAKOVA. The outfit includes a jacket and skirt made from deadstock navy wool trousers, aligning with Eilish’s focus on sustainability.
She completed the look with a white cotton shirt (with an extra pair of sleeves draped over her shoulders), neck tie, knee socks, pumps, and a leather pouch. The buckled accents on the custom ensemble were made from upcycled deadstock belts.

The star has kept a lower profile since finishing her Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour in November, but shared a cheeky shot of herself to check in last month. “Hey,” she wrote on January 6.
In April, Eilish spoke to British Vogue about how she approaches creating music.
“I had no idea [when I was younger] that I was doing anything fearlessly,” she began. “When I would hear people comment that I was only 16 and not fitting in with the stereotype—that I was a rebel or whatever—I remember being really confused because I didn’t see it that way. I just felt like I was doing what I thought was cool. I was not intentionally trying to break any mould or rules or change music. I kind of just stayed true to what I liked and what I wanted.
“But the older I get, there really have been many periods of doubt and fear and feeling so much pressure, and then when more people knew me, more people had something to say. It was hard to remember to trust myself or even believe in myself sometimes. It’s still a process. I think I’m doing pretty good. I’ve also always been very strong-willed and very much myself, so I do think that plays a part.”
