The Most Jaw-Dropping VMAs Red Carpet Looks of 2024

It's been seven months since music's biggest stars came together for the Grammys. At tonight's MTV Video Music Awards, we'll see another reunion of epic proportions. The nominees include Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Olivia Rodrigo, Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish, SZA, Sabrina Carpenter, and Dua Lipa. How's that for an A-list lineup?

In addition to these heavy-hitting names, I'm also excited to see the newest crop of rising stars, many of whom are nominated in the Best New Artist category. I can't wait to see what recent Who What Wear cover star Gracie Abrams will wear on the red carpet—something tells me it's going to be good. Will Tyla outdo her epic Met Gala outfit? How will Chappell Roan dress for her award-show debut? Only time will tell. Scroll down to see the most jaw-dropping red carpet looks from the 2024 MTV VMAs.

Associate Director, Fashion News

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
