Bold and Beautiful: Tyla Stuns in Vintage Chanel at 2025 MTV Video Music Awards Red Carpet
Tyla has always made a fashion statement and made waves at the MTV Video Music Awards ceremony with her daring outfits, such as her look last year in an AREA neon yellow off-the-shoulder chartreuse fringe minidress and her most recent appearance in a vintage Chanel ensemble worn as a dress.
Tyla, 23, was seen arriving at the UBS Arena in Elmont, New York, on Sunday, September 7th, 2025, for the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards (MTV VMAs), where she was nominated for Best Afrobeats Video and won an award for her hit song “Push 2 Start” from her Tyla Studio album, which was released last year. While entering the awards event, the “Water” singer attracted the audience’s attention and demonstrated her own flair and confidence in an ensemble designed by Ron Hartleben in tribute to bygone fashion luminaries.

Tyla, a South African singer-songwriter, graced the red carpet of the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards in a striking two-tone corset reminiscent of the one donned by 55-year-old German model and actress Claudia Schiffer during Chanel’s Spring 1993 ready-to-wear runway presentation, designed by creative director Karl Lagerfeld. The outfit consisted of a white sleeveless corset that she transformed into an elegant micro-minidress with a square neckline embellished with striking black and white stripes, a meticulously tailored bodice, and an A-line hem artfully accentuated by the same stripes on the side pockets; this remarkable garment complemented her petite physique beautifully.
Tyla’s ability to take a classic design and modernize it for the contemporary fashion landscape is nothing short of brilliant.



Tyla, the vocalist of “When I’m With You,” skillfully accessorized the vintage Chanel top with a Pandora layered gold chain belt at her waist, refined layered gold anklets, and Christian Louboutin “Kate” black pointed pumps featuring a slender 100 mm stiletto heel, guaranteeing her a poised and confident presence on the red carpet.
But that wasn’t the end of her decorating this Chanel corset top with eye-catching pieces inspired by the current Pandora Talisman Collection, which debuted on August 28th, 2025, and included her as a brand ambassador. Tyla finished off her appearance with a multi-layered small-link chain necklace and matching bracelets adorned with the stunning Lion Medallion Charm, Swallow Medallion Charm, and Crossing Arrows Oversized Medallion Charm.

These gold accents didn’t just match her belt; they were the perfect finishing touches that provided a seamless blend of vintage sophistication and modern elegance.
