American recording artist Reba McEntire wore a sheer red dress to the 1993 Country Music Association Awards ceremony on September 29, 1993. The sheer fabric was covered with sequins, and cut with a low neckline. The garment was designed by stylist Sandy Spika, and McEntire wore it during a duet performance of "Does He Love You" with Linda Davis. McEntire later said, "I got more press off that dress than if I'd won entertainer of the year." According to McEntire, when her little sister, Susie, saw her on stage she leaned over and said, "Oh Mama!" But all Mama said was, "You need a few more sequins". The dress had a lasting influence and was even worn by men to her future shows in fancy dress. The dress was showcased for some time at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville.
