The 2025 MTV Video Music Awards took place at the UBS Arena in Elmont, New York, on Sunday, September 7, 2025. Several renowned musicians graced the red carpet and stage in magnificent outfits to accept their awards, including Ariana Grande; Lady Gaga, recipient of the “Artist of the Year” award; Rosé of “Blackpink,” who received the “Song of the Year” award for “Apt.”; Sabrina Carpenter, honored with the Best Album Award for “Short n’ Sweet“; Tyla, awarded the Best Afrobeats Song Award for “Push 2 Start”; Megan Moroney, recognized for the Best Country Song Award for “Am I Okay?”; and Lara Raj of “Katseye,” who won the MTV Push Performance of the Year Award for “Touch,” among others.

Ariana Grande, a 32-year-old American actress and singer, attended the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards, where she won Video of the Year for her single “Brighter Days Ahead” from her seventh studio album, “Eternal Sunshine,” which was released on March 8, 2024. At this event, the “Yes, And?” singer exuded celebrity status, wearing four gorgeous costumes designed by American fashion stylist Law Roach, including a polka dot peplum gown, a short tutu dress, a two-tone gown, and a sequin dress complemented with Jimmy Choo shoes and Swarovski accessories.

Each of these outfits showed her distinct style and left fashion enthusiasts and the audience in admiration. In this post, I have compiled a list of Ariana Grande’s top four outfits from the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards.

The gown had black and white polka dots all over the body, a sweetheart neckline, and a well-tailored top with a light pink pleated peplum hemline that gently flowed into a floor-length skirt with a daring back split.

Ariana Grande completed her look with Jimmy Choo “Max” black sandals with long, thin 150 mm heels and platform soles, which she paired with stunning Swarovski crystals to make her shine even brighter.
