When you're Kim and Kanye, you don't need to reinvent the wheel every time. Your presence on the red carpet—in black and white monochromatic looks (including 'Ye's "Famous" tee)—is a present enough.

Everybody knows this was the Year of Gucci. 2 Chainz in head-to-toe Alessandro Michele-designed threads only confirms its place as a red carpet must.

All black everything, except for those eye-catching studs, gives Future an edge over the thirstier celebs on the VMA red carpet.

Desiigner chooses extra gold chains and diamonds over a shirt. Given the heat in New York tonight, that's not a bad decision. Bonus points for choosing a salmon Margiela suit.

Never let them tell you that you can't wear a cat coat over a sheer T-shirt, Jaden. Promise us that.

Yes, it's August. Yes, it's a humid and almost 80 degrees in Manhattan. But if The Get Down actor Shameik Moore is going to add himself to the list of celebrities who don't know how to dress for summer, might as well go all the way in a fur-lined, oversized coat.

Hard to blame Nick Jonas for showing up in the red carpet equivalent of what you would wear to run errands on a cool autumn day. Cozy vibes forever.

Everyone knows the best red carpet accessory is your adorable kid.
