We saw everyone from Beyoncé to Britney kill it on the VMA white carpet, but Rihanna, Bey, et all, had a little extra—and unexpected—glam to give on the after-party circuit. From fantastical fringe to a denim onesie, here, four looks that completely took us by surprise.
Unexpected VMA After-Party Looks
Beyoncé
How does one follow up a feather-adorned Francesco Scognamiglio frock? When you're Beyoncé, the answer is a frothy white Yolan Cris wedding gown, which she wore to accept her video of the year award and for the remainder of the evening.
Hailey Baldwin
After donning a sheer beaded jumpsuit on the VMA carpet, Hailey toned it down (relatively so) in a strapless David Koma gown with an up-to-there slit and lace-up Dsquared2 heels.
Ariana Grande
Ariana Grande's custom Alexander Wang two-piece was a wondrous look for the white carpet, yet her denim all-in-one after-party ensemble was a truly unconventional choice.
Rihanna
The Video Vanguard Award-winner followed her many outfit changes with a fringed vintage Galliano for Dior number, complete with a color-coordinated choker set from Sarara Couture.
