Lil Nas X made a splash on the red carpet at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday in Newark, NJ. The “Montero” artist, who received seven nominations alongside Kendrick Lamar and Jack Harlow, wore a striking look by Harris Reed.

Her ensemble included a feathery tiered skirt with matching headpiece and shimmering trousers from Reed’s Fluid Demi Couture “60 Years a Queen” collection, which debuted last February at London Fashion Week. Her accessories included silver earrings, a bracelet and rings.
Reed’s conceptualizations have been carried by Beyoncé, Iman and many others. Beyoncé wore a number of custom pieces from the line on the cover of British Vogue in June, including a feathered headpiece in collaboration with Vivienne H. Lake paired with a black Alaïa turtleneck dress and heeled boots; the looks were styled by Marni Senofonte.
