Ditch the ordinary, banish the mundane and wave goodbye to predictability. At the MTV Video Music Awards, the stage is set for music’s most iconic legends and rising artists to redefine the fashion landscape with audacious, mesmerising and utterly unforgettable ensembles. A fashion beacon since its inception in 1984, the VMAs have gifted us timeless sartorial moments— from Lenny Kravitz’s gleaming silver bodysuit to Lady Gaga’s infamous meat dress. Remember Kanye West rocking his Yeezys in 2015? Or Rose McGowan’s bold fashion statement (or lack thereof)? Indeed, the VMAs offer much more than fashion. This year, the red carpet turned Pink, mirroring a world influenced by Barbie’s vibrant aesthetics. So, let’s dive into the standout looks from this year’s electrifying extravaganza.
