2024 MTV VMAs red carpet: Chappell Roan, Karol G and more stars arrive to celebrate the night in music

The 2024 MTV Video Music Awards red carpet is notorious for its outrageous and over-the-top displays of fashion.

Each year, the MTV VMAs bring together artists across genres in a celebration of music and must-see moments. But before stars enter the UBS Arena in Elmont, N.Y., they’re debuting looks that could be talked about for years to come.

Who could forget the scandalous lilac jumpsuit and singular seashell-shaped pastie that Lil’ Kim wore to the 1999 awards show or Rose McGowan’s barely-there dress from the 1998 ceremony? We’d be remiss not to mention Lady Gaga’s controversial 2010 look made entirely of raw beef.

Celebrities know the VMAs is the place to make a sartorial splash. Here are some of the most unforgettable looks from the event.

Wielding a literal sword, first-time VMA nominee and performer Chappell Roan stepped out in a sheer black dress with a plunging neckline, which she topped off with a sage green velvet cape.

Her mesh gloves, silver-toned cuffs, cross pendant and metallic, claw-like nails further elevated her gothic look.
