The
MTV music awards are known for not being a normal run of the mill award
show, with many outrageous style choices and red carpet hairstyles on
show! Surprisingly, this year there were many more elegant and
traditional red carpet styles with the outrageous and crazy left to just
Nicki Minaj!
One
of our favourite looks of the night was worn by Demi Lovato! She kept
her red carpet look very young by teaming a sequined skater style dress
with a studded leather jacket! Her hair was tousled with a slight wave
and gave a rocker feel to the overall look. Demi was later presenting an
award and this of course meant a change from the red carpet look she
had been previously seen in. Demi Lovato’s hair had been given more of a
neat wave and her hair was swept to the side giving a much more demure
look than on the red carpet. We can’t wait to see the styles Demi will
be wearing as X factor USA prepares to launch!
Rita
Ora made an appearance at the awards show to present the award for Best
Male Video, which she presented with Demi! Rita’s red carpet look was a
little different; she chose an Emilio Pucci body jewelled suit. Known
for her urban styling, the look was very fitting for her. When Rita took
to the stage to present the award to Chris Brown she had changed into a
very elegant Stéphane Rolland couture gown. The fringed shoulders and the belt
detailing maintained her edgy feel. Her super blonde hair had been
styled into vintage inspired waves which looked fantastic as one of the
MTV music awards red carpet hairstyles.
Our fave of the red carpet hairstyles was worn by Katy Perry. She also looked incredible in her outfit ... she wore an Elie Saab Couture
floor length gown that had stunning red and turquoise flower detailing. LOVE it!
Katy, who has returned to her most famous black locks, also styled her
hair with vintage inspiration. To create the look of Katy Perry’s hair
you will need to use a large barrelled tong! Once you have fully curled
your hair use a soft brush and gently brush out the curls. Add a little
serum to your fingers and run this through the front of your hair to create
the shape.
Taylor
Swift took a different approach to red carpet glamour … she instead
opted for a classy J Mendel off-white trouser suit amongst a sea of
floor length gowns. She also chose to wear her long hair and bangs super
straight. We are so used to seeing Taylor Swift’s hair worn wavy, so
we’re not sure this is our favourite look on her but it worked perfectly
with her outfit as one of the night’s red carpet hairstyles.
