The annual MTV VMA show is one of the most highly anticipated award shows each year, especially since it’s been the stage for some of the most iconic moments in entertainment. This includes Britney Spears‘ “Slave 4 U” performance in 2001 with a live snake, Madonna‘s “Like A Virgin” performance in 1984, Lil Kim‘s unforgettably revealing outfit in 1999, Lady Gaga‘s bloody performance of “Paparazzi” in 2009, Miley Cyrus and Robin Thicke‘s twerk-frenzy of a performance of their hit songs “We Can’t Stop” and “Blurred Lines,” Beyoncé‘s baby bump reveal in 2011 and of course, Kanye West and Taylor Swift‘s infamous on-stage moment at the 2009 show.
It’s also the stage for some of the most fun fashion moments, and this year was no exception. Here’s a roundup of Haute Living‘s picks for best (or most memorably) dressed this year, straight from the pink carpet.
