MTV Video Music Awards 2022 Best Dressed: Chloe Bailey, Becky G, Lil Nas X & more steal the limelight on the red carpet

The MTV Video Music Awards 2022 were held on August 28 at the Prudential Centre in New Jersey, and as always, the event featured appearances from the biggest names in the music industry. It was an amazing night for the music business. Artists including Harry Styles, Doja Cat, Drake, and others were among the night's major candidates. LL Cool J, Jack Harlow, and Nicki Minaj served as the event's hosts. The MTV Video Music Awards are pretty much the craziest red carpet event of the year, and you can always bank on that. Celebrities like Taylor Swift, Lizzo, and the members of Blackpink wore stunning ensembles by designers like Oscar de la Renta, Jean Paul Gaultier, Carolina Herrera, and more as they contended for a place in the VMAs Most Memorable Looks Hall of Fame. So here are our picks for the best, the wildest, and the most unusual looks of the night.

BLACKPINK
A star-studded line-up of guests and performers graced the 2022 VMAs, and BLACKPINK was no less than the primary attraction. Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa were the star attraction when they entered the venue in jaw-droopingly stunning matching all-black ensembles, marking another historic performance for them. With blunt bangs, Lisa accessorised a sleeveless crop top with a long necklace and culottes from Celine. Jisoo looked elegant in a translucent gown, while Jennie channelled a hot girl vibe with a cut-out crop top and long skirt in black. The only blonde present today, Rosé, looked sophisticated in a black turtleneck little dress and Tiffany & Co. jewellery. All combined, they looked incredible.

BECKY G
Becky G, the singer of "Mamiii," made a stunning appearance on August 28 in a figure-hugging tarot-card gown covered with crystal appliqués. Zuhair Murad's fall 2022 couture collection's Look 4 is a figure-hugging shift dress with side cut-outs that reach the sky and embrace the wearer's waist from hem to hem. The front of the outfit included a mosaic of motifs from the Sun, Lovers, Ace of Swords, Chariot, and Justice Cards that were embroidered with tarot-inspired patterns. A blazing sun in red and orange crystals was embroidered on Becky G's bustier, followed by a baroque sword and ruby-red curtains, mermaids in a blue sea, a warrior with a yellow sun behind her, hearts, zodiac signs, and a pair of linked hands with rainbow highlights that trickled down her skirt. The dress's many components were thoughtfully put together to reflect the spiritual undertone of the whole collection, creating a style that made Becky G resemble The Empress. Long, black waves and faultless makeup, such as dramatic black eyeliner and red lipstick with orange overtones, completed the singer's appearance and perfectly matched the crystal decorations on her dress.

ANITTA
Anitta stepped out on the red carpet of the 2022 MTV VMAs in New Jersey yesterday wearing a high-end red deconstructed gown by Schiaparelli. The daring outfit included a sharply corseted, asymmetrical bustier that drew the waist inward and gave the sleek silhouette structure. An intricate red fabric web that was structured and delicately draped over her shoulders gave the singer extra covering, and the velvety dress's cascading, downward-curving skirt had a short side slit. Anitta opted for bold silver jewellery, such as a geometric arm cuff, three-dimensional earrings, and beautifully sparkling rings, to complement her outfit. The 29-year-old supermodel slicked back her short brown hair, removing strands to frame her face, and wore peachy-toned makeup finished with a glossy nude pout. A sky-high heel on Anitta's dark crimson strappy metallic platforms propelled the actress to new heights.
