The Most Daring looks Celebrities Wore At The BET Awards

Blac Chyna had a golden moment in a bustier with chess pieces on it and a matching skirt with a train

Blac Chyna arrived in head-to-toe gold. The statement piece was a gold bustier with individual chess pieces stitched onto it, as well as beads and embellishments further down the garment.

She paired this with a metallic maxi skirt with a side tie, a thigh-high slit, and a short train, as well as gold chandelier earrings and glittery cuff bracelets.

Summer Walker’s gold-and-black look was inspired by traditional Hmong jewelry

The American singer wore black-and-gold body jewelry that formed the outline of a bra, with matching gold pasties. It also included a miniskirt, wrist cuffs, and statement earrings. She completed the look with barely there heels and her sleek hair to one side. 

Saucy Santana opted for a green-and-yellow monochrome look consisting of a blazer dress and furry boots

Styled by Law Roach in Area couture, according to the stylist’s Instagram post on Sunday, Saucy Santana wore a yellow-and-green checkered blazer dress with a striking silhouette. The singer wore matching neon boots made of ombré cascading fur

Muni Long stood out in a red-and-pink statement tulle gown with a striking silhouette

Muni Long attended the event in a red-and-pink Carolina Herrera tulle gown, styled by Jason Rembert, according to the latter’s Instagram post Sunday. The structured sleeveless maxi dress had a wrap-around bodice, which was broken up by a pop of pink tulle and a sharp skirt.

Coi Leray wore double denim as part of an oversize ensemble for the BET Awards

Wearing Alexander Wang, according to Leray’s Instagram post on Sunday, the rapper had a double-denim moment.

Leray wore an open oversize crisp white shirt with large cuffs, a bra top underneath, and a denim blazer on top. She added Alexander Wang shorts, over-the-knee denim boots, and a glittering silver statement necklace to complete the outfit

Shaun Ross attended the 2022 BET Awards in Los Angeles in a plain-black look

Ross’ 2022 BET Awards outfit was a simplistic black shirt and pants combination, but the model’s daring accessories made it memorable. According to an Instagram post by Ross on Sunday, the black buttoned-down shirt with metallic threads running through it and the slim-fitting matching pants were a Noid design.

Ross wore shiny black shoes that looked like feet with individual toes, by brand AVAVAV, black sunglasses by Gentle Monster, as well as rings and a grill by Alligator Jesus

Big Freedia rocked rich colors and shining fabrics, but the whole outfit was a lot to look at

Freedia’s look would be awesome for a Pride celebration, but on the red carpet, her ensemble was a bit overwhelming.

There were a lot of colors, textures, and silhouettes going on at once in the New Orleans rapper’s outfit, so focusing on one or two features and using simple jewelry would help streamline the look

Kanye West opted for yet another mask onstage at the awards

West is known for helping his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, improve her style, but the look he wore to the BET Awards could have used some work.

It’s unclear whether the rapper’s mask has become a permanent accessory or a signature look, but when combined with the metallic olive-green hoodie and large combat boots he wore Sunday, it was a puzzling choice.
