Avril kept it casual
Avril Lavigne kept it very casual for the VMAs, opting for a long-sleeved black T-shirt and matching cargo pants with a chain. While she may not have looked as 'glam' as the other attendees, she stuck to her pop-punk style and we love her for it.
Dove Cameron
Dove also rocked florals
Dove Cameron looked edgy in her Paco Rabanne dress that featured a floral print, leather corset-style detailing across the bust, and a leather belt that nipped in her waist. Her braids, belt strap choker, and siren eyes completed her look.
