Lalisa Manobal (aka Lisa) totally stunned everyone with a see-through black Jacquemus dress that basically whispered ‘I’m here!’ She kept it classy with a simple bandeau bra and glammed it up BIG time with a sparkly diamond choker. Oh, and did we mention her new dark chocolate hair? Instant fan frenzy!

Ejae swapped her usual stage look for a super-glam, strapless black gown that screamed Old Hollywood. With a tight corset and a fancy bubble hem, she went from singing star to red carpet queen in seconds. Fans couldn’t get enough of her win and her sleek style.

Teyana Taylor broke all the rules with a black dress packed with cutouts and bedazzled details. The real showstopper? A sparkly thong with crystals that made everyone’s jaw drop. Diamonds, pixie cut, and major style points all around.

Justine Lupe went peachy and sheer in a gown that left little to the imagination. Fans were split - some called it elegant, others thought it needed a bit more coverage. Either way, those glittery fringes and soft waves made her stand out big time.

Jenna Ortega went full gothic with a black dress packed with gigantic cutouts and some wild beaded fringe. It even had a daring ‘whale tail’ behind! Fans loved her signature vibe, while others wished she’d switch it up. Either way, she definitely made a statement.

Jocelyn Elizabeth floated down the carpet in a sheer gown covered in bright 3D flowers that popped like crazy. Red roses, green leaves, and sparkly diamonds made this look feel like a fairytale - if fairytales were way more revealing!

Jennifer Lawrence went all in with a seriously sheer Givenchy dress that had floral embroidery but more skin showing than not. She even joked about it on the carpet! People were totally split - some loved the daring style, others were baffled. No denying it was a jaw-dropper.

Jennifer Lopez stepped out in a jaw-dropping, totally sheer 2003 Jean Louis Scherrer gown with brown lace and sparkles sprinkled all over. Her silk tulle mermaid train was next-level, and the look had everyone buzzing. Some fans called her a fashion goddess; others, well, not so much.
