Anitta is used to making a striking appearance on the red carpet, as was the case during her appearance on Wednesday at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards. The Brazilian superstar arrived at the UBS Arena in Elmont, New York, in a white lingerie-inspired ensemble that blurred the lines between haute couture and bold statement wear. Anitta’s outfit exuded bridal vibes while keeping her signature sensual aesthetic in the spotlight.

The singer’s look featured an intricate corset top that was laced and shaped, reminiscent of vintage lingerie. The structured bodice was complemented by sheer panels. The high slit in the matching draped skirt revealed thigh-high stockings. The look was completed with a matching white veil that was delicately draped over her shoulders and trailed behind her as she walked.

Anitta completed her stunning ensemble with a necklace and multiple bangles by Suzanne Kalan, making the outfit a star. She wore silver strappy pumps that peeked out from under the long train and her hair was left straight and flowing down her back.

The singer’s red carpet appearance set the tone for an exciting night. Anitta is nominated for two awards: Best Latin Song, where she receives two nominations for “Mil Veces” and her collaboration with Peso Pluma, “BELLAKEO,” and Best Editing for “Mil Veces.” With her upcoming performance at the VMAs, her daring fashion choice only adds to the excitement.

Anitta was not the only star to wear bridal wear on the red carpet.

Addison Rae made a bold statement in a white satin bra and panty set with scalloped trim by Miss Claire Sullivan. To take the look from the boudoir to the stage, Rae added a dramatic tulle bustle that spread out behind her like a swan, while feathers cascaded from both her bra and bustle, adding a theatrical touch to the ensemble.

Blackpink’s Lisa, who came for her “Rockstar” nomination alone, fully embodied the title in her stunning outfit. She appeared in a floor-length nude Mugler gown with built-in gloves and a draped hood that gave a dreamy, ethereal vibe. Peeking out from beneath the delicate peach layers was an architectural nude corset accented with metallic embellishments along the neckline. Lisa’s standout look reflected the stiff competition in the Best K-Pop category, where she’s up against heavyweights like Stray Kids, New Jeans, Tomorrow x Together, NCT Dream, and Jungkook.

Camila Cabello also chose a bridal style, but with a darker twist. The singer opted for a sheer black lace gown by Tony Ward Couture, paired with a matching veil, reflecting the aesthetic of a gothic bride. To complete the transformation, Cabello ditched her blonde locks in favor of her signature dark brown hair, adding even more drama to her impressive red carpet appearance.

The MTV VMAs honor the best music videos, artists and songs of the year. Megan Thee Stallion will make her hosting debut during the 2024 ceremony, which will take place on September 11 at UBS Stadium in Elmont, New York. Katy Perry will receive the honorary Video Vanguard Award, while artists up for grabs include Sabrina Carpenter, Lenny Kravitz, Eminem and Karol G.
