Best-Dressed at the Video Music Awards

FabSugar — Fri, 01 Sep 2006 13:04:53 -0700

This morning we asked you guys to vote on which star you thought looked most fab on the Video Music Awards red carpet. If you watched the show, you know the pickings were pretty slim. Gold was a big trend, but unfortunate fashion choices were even more popular. (Click here to see some of the more woeful attire.)

Perhaps it's telling that the usually hit-or-miss Christina Aguilera was the clear winner, arriving in a floor-length nude gown with dazzling bead work.

Though we neglected to include Shakira in our poll, she was the hands-down favorite among write-in candidates.

I thought Beyonce's gown was far less flattering than her usual fashion choices, but at least she looked glamorous, coming in a distant second to Christina.

And in a fourth-place finish that was likely by default was Jessica Simpson, in an unusually boring and somewhat cheap-looking black mini dress.

VMA Style: Going For Gold

Purple may have been the color of choice at the Emmys, but at last night's MTV Video Music Awards, the stars opted solidly for gold. Gold is, after all, one of fall's most pervasive trends. Even host Jack Black spent part of the night in a sparkly gold suit.

Christina Aguilera arrived wearing a beaded, nude-toned gown that glittered like gold - and also very much like the gown Best-Dressed Katherine Heigl chose for the Emmys.

Petra Nemcova showed up in an adorable strapless shift-dress paired with some sort of weird gold-chain headband.

Vanessa Minnillo got decked out in a tight-fitting strapless dress with a bustier-style top.

Whitney Port's golden frock had a full skirt and a lingerie-inspired feel.

Tune in later today for more fashion coverage from the VMAs.

Red carpet fashion faux pas alert. Pink and Shakira just arrived on the MTV VMA red carpet in the same Balmain dress! Looks like they were able to laugh it off, however. Who wore it better?

MTV Video Music Awards: Cassie

FabSugar — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 19:25:16 -0700

Cassie kept it sassy at the VMAs by donning a plunging silk floral print minidress and killer metallic peep-toe booties. As if that weren't enough, the singer adorned her wrists with matching diamond cuffs, her ears with spunky earrings, and topped it all off with a bright yellow clutch. Is it too much or just right?

Never the wallflower, Katy Perry arrived at the VMAs wearing a slinky silver, low-cut minidress. Notice how she's in tune with the funky hemline trend, and check out that spiky, jewel-encrusted detail. For accessories, the songstress adorned her feet with matching shiny Christian Louboutins. What do you think about her shimmering ensemble?
