The music industry’s biggest names are arriving at the UBS Arena in New York for MTV’s Video Music Awards (VMAs). And with the ceremony pushed back a day to avoid clashing with the US presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, all eyes were on the red carpet Wednesday evening.
The annual award show has a reputation for outlandish style, from Lady Gaga’s blood-soaked bodysuit to the wedding dress Madonna wore to perform “Like a Virgin” at the very first VMAs, almost 40 years ago to the day.
Fashion watchers will be hoping that attendees known for their bold wardrobes — including host Megan Thee Stallion and nominees like Billie Eilish, Bad Bunny and BlackPink’s Lisa, who is among the stars performing at the show — will be on form.
See below for some of the red carpet’s best looks so far. This story will be updated throughout the evening.
