Trust Selena Gomez to make a statement of her own at the 2023 MTV VMAs, which is known for seeing some of the most viral fashion moments in history. Walking the pink carpet at New Jersey’s Prudential Center last night, the singer embraced the beloved cut-out trend through her look, but with a spin.

Gomez’s stylist Erin Walsh paired the bespoke creation with a collection of petal-shaped diamond jewelry from Pasquale Bruni, as well as strappy Jimmy Choo heels in a matching red shade. A soft glam by the 31-year-old’s trusted makeup artist Hung Vanngo complemented the look, and consisted of a creamy nude pout, brown smoky eye, and brushed-up brows using products from Gromez’s brand Rare Beauty. She also wore her hair down in a sleek middle part courtesy of stylist Anh Co Tran, while a fresh set of metallic red nails by Tom Bachik rounded out her beauty look for the day.
