Charli XCX graced the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards red carpet on September 27 at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. The British pop star, age 34, chose a dramatic black velvet skirt and matching long-sleeved top, featuring a mesh cutout and bell sleeves, with corset lacing on the skirt's back.
Her ensemble, styled with dark eye makeup and straight hair, included a daring braless choice that resulted in a minor wardrobe malfunction, with a nipple briefly visible. Charli shared her look on TikTok prior to the ceremony.
Arriving with four nominations for "Camera" and her "Music, Fashion, Film" movie, Charli also won a "Video for Good" award in 2025. Her appearance follows the release of her eighth album, "Music, Fashion Film," which explores a rock-influenced sound distinct from her previous work.
Charli discussed her artistic approach, noting that her albums intentionally contrast, serving as a connective tissue. She embraces earnestness and humor in her work, accepting varied interpretations of her artistic intentions.
