Sabrina Carpenter's 2024 MTV VMAs Dress Was A Madonna Classic
— Jeff Kravitz/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty ImagesOne thing you can always count on fashion’s It girls to do is rewear legends’ most iconic gowns. On the It Ends With Us press tour, Blake Lively showed out in Britney Spears’ Versace number, while Kim Kardashian infamously borrowed Marilyn Monroe’s dress for the Met Gala. The next style star to pay homage to an icon? Sabrina Carpenter. On Wednesday, Sept. 11, the “Espresso” singer attended the 2024 MTV VMAs, where she was a performer and seven-time nominee — and, as expected, the style savant stood out in her all-white gown on the (black) carpet. Eagle-eyed fashion fans clocked that her strapless ensemble was the exact same dress Madonna famously wore with $20 million worth of Harry Winston diamonds to the Oscars in 1991. The pop star channeling the queen of pop? Iconic behavior.Sabrina’s Old Hollywood Glam Carpenter wore a body-hugging strapless number, channeling starlets from the 1910s to the 1960s. The sequined gown featured a sweetheart neckline lined with pearls and diamonds, gloriously framing her décolletage. — Valerie Terranova/FilmMagic/Getty ImagesProving she’s a fashion girl through and through, she dipped from the archives of pop-star favorite Bob Mackie. It also meant she rocked a dress much, much older than she is. And, naturally, she dazzled. The Work It actor piled on the bling with De Beers jewelry, frosting herself with a diamond lariat necklace, earrings, and rings that totaled over 30 carats. — Mike Coppola/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty ImagesShe went full Old Hollywood with her glam too, which included Goldilocks curls and a statement red lip. — Roy Rochlin/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty ImagesMadonna’s OG DressAlthough Mackie created several looks that went down in fashion history (he was Cher’s go-to, after all), no dress of his was more notorious than the gown Madonna wore to the 1991 Oscars’ after-party. — Ron Galella/Ron Galella Collection/Getty ImagesGoing full Marilyn Monroe, Carpenter topped her look with a snowy fur stole, opera gloves, and eye-watering diamonds on her neck, ears, and cuff. The “Crazy For You” artist took beauty notes from the Madonna look as well, styling her hair into similar curls and sporting a red lip. — Ron Galella/Ron Galella Collection/Getty ImagesShe Changed Into A Second LookTo perform a medley of “Please Please Please,” “Taste,” and “Espresso,” Carpenter changed into a look more befitting her onstage wheelhouse: an itty-bitty bedazzled bodysuit. Like her first ‘fit, she leaned into her sparkly motif and accessorized with sparkly Mary Janes. — Mike Coppola/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty ImagesShe’s a diamond in the industry.
