Most daring fashion moments ever recorded
If there’s a place for celebrities to showcase their fashion sense, it’s the red carpet at the MTV VMAs.
Over the years, the MTV Video Music Awards red carpet has witnessed some of the most unforgettable and daring looks—from edible dresses to barely-there ensembles. As the 2024 VMAs draw near, it’s only natural to look back on the most iconic fashion moments from the award show.
Who could forget the time Lady Gaga made a grand entrance in 2010 dressed entirely in raw beef? From her dress to her beef boots and hat, this outfit was truly unforgettable. And then there was Nicki Minaj‘s playful attire the following year. In 2011, the “Starships” singer paid homage to her favorite childhood toys by adorning her legs with stuffed animal remnants.
One thing remains consistent at the VMAs—celebrities never shy away from making a bold statement with their fashion choices. Going back to the first VMAs in 1984, Madonna dazzled in a white-hot dress, lace gloves, and a belt with the words “BOY TOY” emblazoned on it. And in 1998, Lil’ Kim turned heads with a perfectly coordinated lilac outfit, complete with a sequined nipple cover that matched her daring jumpsuit.
