When it comes to fun, over-the-top red carpet looks, the ensembles at the MTV Video Music Awards always take the cake. I mean, images of Lil’ Kim in that one-shoulder, one-boob jumpsuit are forever etched in my brain—much like Christina Aguilera’s “Dirty”-era micro miniskirt and wrap halter top. The musical celebration has always been an exciting place for artists to express themselves through their outfits, and this year was no different, thanks to today’s biggest stars.
Below, we’re zooming in on the five best looks of the evening. It’s no easy feat to find those stand-out looks that really serve fashun, especially since, this year, many attendees opted for theatrical costumes. But there are a few celebs who showed up and showed out in the most elegant way.
