It was a night of eye-opening fashion.
The 2019 MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) on Monday brought out some of this year’s biggest names in music as well as their best (and worst) fashion choices.
Performers at this year’s awards included Bad Bunny, Camila Cabello, J Balvin, Lil Nas X, Lizzo, Taylor Swift, Rosalía and Canada’s very own Shawn Mendes.
Superstar Missy Elliott also performed some of her top hits and was honoured with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award.

When it comes to fashion, the VMAs stick out from other award shows. Stars are not afraid to play with hues, texture and lengths, all while making bold fashion statements along the way.
This year, we saw everything from thigh-high boots to sequins matched with sequins to snakes on the red carpet.
