Best-Dressed Celebs at the MTV VMAs Red-Carpet
Although Black was the dominant colour at the VMAs red carpet, it made all other colours more noticable.
It was a star studded night in which the VMAs made its way back after 2 years of COVID restrictions. The iconic award show, which is known for its glamour and couture like fashion pieces, had a mix of Goth. Held at the Prudential Centre in Newark, New Jersey, the VMAs brought out the best of fashion with a mix of Goth and Couture.
The most-anticipated award ceremony saw performances by the likes of Bad Bunny and Nicki Minaj, with Jack Harlow and LL Cool J hosting. Celebrity fashion watchers also had much to celebrate as style darlings including Taylor Swift, Lil Nas and Becky G arrived in show-stopping ensembles.
Most celebrities choose black as the main colour for their outfit. They also brought outfits to life with fetishwear-inspired accessories, such as singer Dove Cameron’s thick leather choker, or flashes of colours, like Sabrina Carpenter’s rainbow embellishments.
Stars also dare to bare, with celebrities including Ashley Graham, Tate McRae, Anitta, and Blackpink’s Jennie all flashing with their looks. Men were also present, too, of course! They mostly bared their torsos and wore gender-fluid fashion, bringing a certain softness to the menswear ensembles, with Conan Gray, Harris Reed, Ethan Torchio.
