When the world's top country artists gather for the annual Academy of Country Music Awards, it's not just about the music — it's also a grand stage for show-stopping fashion. This year, for the 59th annual ACM Awards, one songstress had everyone talking, and it wasn't host Reba McEntire. Country singer-songwriter Lainey Wilson took home three major awards. We expected nothing less as the country star took home five awards at last year's Country Music Awards, where she wore a pair of black ruffly bell bottoms.
Other winners at the 2024 ACMs include Chris Stapleton, Dan + Shay, Megan Moroney, Luke Combs, Old Dominion — just to name a few. Prized awards aside, Wilson, who you may also know from Paramount Network's hit drama series "Yellowstone," wore a fierce ensemble that set the red carpet ablaze and turned heads at every turn. Since her fabulous outfit landed her at the top of several best-dressed lists from the night, we found similar looks to help you replicate her iconic style.
Bringing a touch of celebrity glam into your own wardrobe, you can don a bold-colored pair of bell-bottoms like the ones Wilson wore at the ACMs and CMAs. And the best part is you don't have to spend much because these bargain-friendly dupes are readily available.
We love this pick because they're both bold and chic. The fire engine hue is balanced nicely by the crease on each pant leg that makes them perfect for a day at the office. Pair it with a crisp white button-down or sleek white T-shirt.
Made of five percent spandex, they have a little bit of stretch. And, they come in various other bold hues if red is not quite your color.
Want your pants to swing? These bell bottoms are for you. As stretchy as they come, they open at the bottom to a super-exaggerated width. These pants will surely make a statement with both color and silhouette.
You'll also appreciate the elastic waist and frilly hem detail. Other colors are available should red not suit you.
If you are seeking a very retro-looking pair of bell bottoms but also want to be comfortable, this velvet pick will feel like yoga pants. Made partially of spandex, these flares feature 4-way stretch and tummy compression.
They come in various colors like black, navy and ivory. You can also get them as basic leggings in non-flare versions.
We adore the scalloped waist detail in these red pants. The crease makes them suitable for a day in an office or a special occasion. While they're more like a wide-leg trouser than a statement-making pair of bell bottoms, they certainly check the box and mirror Lainey Wilson's ACM style.
They have some stretch, and come in a breathable fabric.
Adding the flare in flare pants, these black bell bottoms feature ruffle tiers like Wilson's from the 2023 CMAs. Fitted at the top with an exaggerated flare, this sleek look with a flounce will turn heads.
Soft to the touch, stretchy, and comfortable, these high-waisted pants can be worn to any special event with a fancy blouse and high heels.
Looking for a hippie-chic vibe? These flared bottoms look just like Wilson's trendy tiered flares. Made of a combination of polyester and spandex, you can be assured they're soft, comfortable, and silky smooth.
We love how the pants just hug on top before the wow you at the bottom. Consider these for music festivals, dance parties, and clubbing.

Get the silhouette of Wilson's bell bottoms, but lean a little more casual with this denim interpretation. A polyester blend, these flare jeans are soft and stretchy while featuring a high waist and the layered ruffle hem of your dreams.
We especially love this style for highlighting curves. And if you don't like this color, they also come in traditional blue denim.
WDIRARA Plus-Size Layered Ruffle Flare Leg Pants
Layered ruffle tiers, check! These high-waisted pants with a bit of a crop also feature the same tiered bottoms that Wilson's did. What sets it apart is its chain strap at the top. Pair it with a top tucked in to show off the embellishment. As for footwear, heels or flats will do the trick.
GUOLEZEEV Stacked Leggings With Ruffle Bottoms
These leather-like pants give the same sheen that Wilson's bell bottoms did at the 2023 CMAs. While they don't have the same exaggerated tiers, the effect is represented by the draped, ruffle hem at the bottom.
If you're a little more rock and a little less country, these stretchy pants are for you!
Want to get the ruffle bell bottom look of Wilson's 2023 CMA outfit but in an effortless jumpsuit style? Here it is! This one-piece number can be dressed up with strappy heels or down with a pair of flats.
You won't need much else to complete the look, but it's worth noting that buyers said this ensemble doesn't have much stretch.
