One Weekend in Vegas with Tinashe

Tinashe is unpredictable—in the best possible way. The 29-year-old singer is known for defying genres and collaborating with everyone from electronic music DJ Kaytranada to Britney Spears. She's equally experimental when it comes to her personal style, gravitating toward independent designers and sultry ensembles with avant-garde beauty looks to match.

For last weekend's Grammy Awards in Las Vegas, Tinashe chose a baby pink latex gown by GCDS with an oversized back-bow detail, accessorizing with a Coperni handbag and wearing her hair in a voluminous curly bun with delicate front tendrils. But that wasn't her only Vegas appearance: The day before, she performed at Grey Goose's Sound Sessions brunch (hosted by image architect Law Roach), where she and her crew of dancers got the party going with a mini setlist that included fan favorites like "All Hands on Deck" and "2 On."

Below, Tinashe shares how she prepared for her whirlwind weekend in Las Vegas—including glimpses of her dance rehearsals, glam setup, and fashion fittings.

"I can't imagine a better way to kick off a weekend in Las Vegas than with a day party," Tinashe tells BAZAAR.com. "I'm excited to bring you along for the prep and glam. Let's do this!"

"Getting dolled up overlooking the Vegas Strip gets me hyped every time. The energy here is unmatched."

"Sound check was a success and we're toasting to the weekend with Grey Goose Essences cocktails, of course! My favorite flavor is the white peach and rosemary. It's so refreshing with just some soda water and fresh peach, and perfect for the daytime vibe."

"On to fittings with my team—my favorite part!"

"We went with this amazing pink latex JW Anderson dress and sky-high GCDS heels, earrings by Panconesi, and rings from Jupiter and La Manso. I normally wear all black but have been loving brighter colors recently."

"Showtime!"
