All the stylish looks from MTV VMAs 2025.
A lacey affair
Sabrina Carpenter in Valentino
Singer Sabrina Carpenter went bold in a sheer, form-hugging crimson lace dress from Valentino that displayed her curves. She paid ode to old Hollywood, accessorising the full-sleeved outfit with a fuzzy purple boa. Channelling her inner Jessica Rabbit, her blonde locks were styled in loose, side-parted waves.
A harlequin hit
Doja Cat in Balmain
Rapper-singer Doja Cat brought the drama to the evening in a harlequin-print minidress from Balmain. The off-shoulder dress with a plunging neckline was embellished with pink crystals. Taking it up a notch, she also sported a lipstick-shaped clutch from Judith Leiber — and ate a tube of actual lipstick on the red carpet.
Taking the plunge
Ricky Martin looked too hot to trot on the red carpet
Ricky Martin was too hot to trot on the red carpet in an unbuttoned silk shirt. The singer, who won the Latin Icon award, paired the shirt with high-waisted trousers and a statement neckpiece to round off the look.
Maritime Magic
Conan Gray in Eril Charlotte
Conan Gray served one of the boldest looks at the VMAs. The singer wore a ruffled dress, inspired by vintage sailor uniforms. The Eril Charlotte creation also featured exaggerated puff sleeves and a lace frill. He rounded off the look with a pair of white, blocky platform shoes.
Archival dressing FTW
Tyla in Chanel
Tyla turned a top from Chanel’s 1993 collection and into a cheeky minidress for the red carpet. Originally modelled by Claudia Schiffer, the singer restyled her archival look with a layered, chunky jewellery, a waist chain and black heels.
A twist on suiting
Sombr in Valentino
Singer-songwriter Sombr looked spiffy in a Valentino tuxedo with featured a jacket with embroidered lapels. Cinched at the waist, the blazer also featured a tasseled sash. He finished off the look with coiffed curls to complement the ensemble.
Braided headphones, anyone?
FKA Twigs in Louis Souvestre
Singer-producer FKA Twigs’ custom-made Louis Souvestre fit and washboard abs grabbed eyeballs on the red carpet. But it was her braided headphones, created by celebrity hairstylist Louis Souvestre that stole the show.
