Sequins, lamé and lace made a triumphant return to the red carpet on on the occasion of the 2018 MTV Video Music Awards, which were held on Monday, August 20, at the Radio City Music Hall in New York.
While some of the guests like Amber Rose or Cardi B, one of the major winners of the evening, turned out in strong colors and satiny fabrics, most of the stars opted for neutral shades of white, black and silver, with sequins, lamé, and cutouts or plays on transparency.
Here is a roundup of the most striking looks at the ceremony.
Rapper Cardi B chose a magenta velvet, asymmetric dress with a plunging neckline.
Winnie Harlow rose to the occasion in a largely transparent, jewel-encrusted creation.
Nicky Hilton chose a refined and elegant, black and white dress with decorative flounces.
Amber Rose certainly went to town in a bright red Catwoman outfit, with an ultra high-cut bodysuit and cone brassiere.
Singer Camila Cabello also opted for color in this tie dye dress.

Young actress Millie Bobby Brown was as elegant as ever in this top and trousers two-piece.
Jennifer Lopez caused a sensation in an asymmetric, high-slit, dazzling silver dress.
