Our Favourite VMA RED CARPET Outfits
Lenny Kravitz
Styled by Anthony Vaccarello, Creative Director at Saint Laurent, Lenny switched up his classic rock look with an autumnal Saint Laurent suit worn shirtless, paired with a pair of shades. A bold look that grabbed everyone's attention!

Ariana Grande
This year Ariana Grande was styled by Law Roach, who dressed her in a long polka dot Fendi dress, inspired by the 1980s. It was exciting to see her step away from the Glinda look and try something new on the red carpet.

Sabrina Carpenter
Sabrina stood out in a custom Valentino red lace gown, styled by the iconic Fashion Stylist and Designer, Jared Ellner. The mix of Hollywood glamour and striking colour made her one of the night's biggest fashion highlights.

FKA twigs
This year, FKA twigs turned heads on the red carpet in a burgundy two-piece set styled by Matthew Josephs, who completed the look with platform heels and a shawl. Her bold hairstyle was created by Louis Souvestre, who crafted the braids to resemble a pair of wired headphones.

Chloe & JOe's Top Picks
Chloe's Favourite - Zara Larsson
Zara stunned everyone with a custom floral dress designed by Irish designer Sorcha O'Raghallaigh. The look was a collaboration between O'Raghallaigh and stylist Caterina Ospina, who paired it with orange heels and a matching floral headpiece. This playful and unique look was Chloe's top choice for the night!

Joe's Favourite - Yungblud
Styled by Daniel Satori, Yungblud went for a daring shirtless look with low-rise leather trousers, adding Ozzy Osbourne's cross chain for a personal rock-inspired touch. Joe loved the boldness of this outfit!
