Sabrina Carpenter sparkled on stage for her 2024 MTV VMAs performance!
On Wednesday, Sept. 11, the singer, 25, dressed to impress as she performed a medley of her 2024 hits “Please Please Please,” “Taste” and “Espresso” at the star-studded ceremony held at New York’s UBS Arena.
After making her mark on the VMAs red carpet wearing a sparkling vintage Bob Mackie gown that Madonna previously wore in 1991 for the Oscars, Carpenter then changed into a fully custom Victoria’s Secret look for her performance.
Styled by Jared Ellner, the musician donned a dazzling bodysuit corset with her signature kiss embellished on the back. The incredible look took over 180 hours to complete, per a press release obtained by PEOPLE.
The ensemble was adorned in over 100,000 stones placed by hand and featured handmade crystal fringes, covered in over 18,500 crystal beads.
Fans can shop similar looks online; an Atelier Victoria’s Secret Wicked Crystal Tulle Slip Dress, an Atelier Victoria’s Secret Wicked Unlined Tulle Crystal Balconette Bra and Atelier Victoria’s Secret Crystal Chain V-String Panty totals $2,024.
During her space-inspired performance, Carpenter kicked things off with “Please Please Please” from a swing being held by a giant Moon Person above the audience, before she paid homage to Britney Spears by including the famous spoken interlude from her “Oops!… I Did It Again” music video. She then launched into her latest single “Taste.”
Carpenter, who made out with an alien during the performance, finished off by belting out her track “Espresso” while surrounded by dancing astronauts. All three songs are taken off Carpenter’s most recent album Short n’ Sweet.
