Anitta, the Brazilian pop sensation, solidified her status as a style icon at the 2024 MTV VMAs. Known for her captivating red carpet appearances, Anitta consistently pushes boundaries with her fashion choices. From her elegant black velvet gown by Sohee Park in 2021 to her Schiaparelli red ensemble in 2022, her wardrobe evolution has kept her at the forefront of fashion trends.
This year, with the VMAs celebrating its 40th anniversary, Anitta embraced the occasion with a daring bridal-inspired look. As a nominee for Best Latin Video for her latest album “Funk Generation” and a performer during the ceremony, her outfit needed to make a statement. And make a statement it did. Upon arriving at the UBS Arena in New York, Anitta stunned in a white mini dress that instantly evoked a sense of nostalgia. Was she a bride? Perhaps. A rebellious bride? Definitely. The dress, complete with a corseted bodice and a flowing train, drew immediate comparisons to Britney Spears’ iconic 2003 VMAs performance with Madonna and Christina Aguilera.
Anitta completed the look with white stockings and heeled sandals, further amplifying the Britney-Christina vibe. Her veil, seamlessly blending into the dress’s train, added a touch of ethereal beauty. The ensemble was perfectly complemented by her signature makeup, featuring dramatic eyelashes and subtly bleached brows.
The 2000s nostalgia was undeniable, and it’s not surprising that celebrities pay tribute to pop icons at an awards show with such a rich history. After all, who could forget the legendary kiss between Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and Madonna, a moment that remains etched in VMAs history?
