Sabrina Carpenter, Chloe Bailey, and Conan Gray were just a few of the celebrities rocking cutouts at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards. One of the biggest trends of the evening, these cutouts were super-stylized, unique, and anything but basic.

In addition to a deep keyhole cutout, Carpenter’s sparkly, floral gown featured two mega-cutouts, one on either side, that spanned from her ribcage down past her hips and dipped in above her hipbones.

Chloe Bailey’s glitzy gladiator gown had a spray of sharp-edged cutouts decorating its metallic, corset top. Her crisscrossing cutouts featured black mesh inlays that added even more edge to the look.

Kerri Colby seriously slayed the black carpet in a Mugler body suit that was, honestly, more cutout than suit. The Rupaul’s Drag Race alum also went with a monochromatic vibe and matched both her hair and shoes to her ‘fit.

Latto had a unique take on the cutout trend and rocked the look with a blazer-skirt combo. The monochromatic green vibe is a yes from me.

Ashley Graham’s Houghton dress featured four cutouts. The two over her shoulders and the first across her torso are gathered with a glittering safety pin at the bust. I especially love the asymmetry of this dress.

Kamie Crawford rocked a bubblegum pink dress that would have otherwise made a darling matching set with a cutout perfectly placed to show off her very Y2K-inspired belly button ring.

Lili Reinhart’s witchy, maxi dress was decorated with a keyhole cutout and was probably the tamest cutout look of the evening. Her drapey gown just flaunted a little bit of chest, but it was so cute.
