The 2026 BET Awards red carpet delivered no shortage of headline moments, but there were plenty of other celebrities who deserved a closer look. From dramatic gowns to sleek minimalism, these were the remaining notable fashion moments from Sunday night’s ceremony in Los Angeles.
New Hair, New Attitude
Chloe Bailey was almost unrecognisable thanks to her platinum-blonde bob. Her Valdrin Sahiti Fall 2025 gown, with its sculpted crystal bodice and black velvet panels, created a striking hourglass effect, but the hair and makeup felt disconnected from the glamour of the dress.
Styled with Tacori jewellery.
Sheer Beyond Belief
Coco Jones wore Basil Soda Spring 2026, and considering just how sheer the skirt was, that hand placement was absolutely necessary. The vibrant red colour looked stunning on her, but I really wish whoever styles Coco would do better by her.
She is so beautiful, yet she continues to be dressed in looks that feel far less luxurious than she deserves.
Lime In The Spotlight
Eva Marcille ensured all eyes were on her in a lime-green Muehleder dress. If I was ever going to co-sign a summer knit, this would be it. Between the colour, the draping and the exaggerated knot, this was one of the night’s boldest looks.
Rock-Star Energy
Flo Milli brought plenty of attitude in Do Long. The mullet, oversized choker and dramatic tulle gave this look an unexpected rock edge while still feeling true to her rap persona. It was fearless, theatrical and exactly the sort of fashion risk I’d like to see more artists take. The ankle cuffs may divide opinion, but the overall styling felt authentic.
Moody Glamour
Kehlani wore Chats by C.Dam, and everything about this look felt unmistakably her. From the sculptural silhouette to the statement jewellery, it captured the dark, alternative direction she has made her signature.
Classic Gucci
Keke Palmer wore Gucci Pre-Fall 2026. Even with the crystal embellishment, the one-shoulder gown felt surprisingly understated by her standards, allowing her natural charisma to take centre stage. Which it did.

Golden Glow
Kelly Rowland shimmered in a gold Valdrin Sahiti gown. The silhouette was simple, but the liquid-metallic finish and plunging draped neckline ensured she made an impact.
A Surprising Turn
We’re so used to seeing Madisin Rian in elegant Armani Privé gowns that this Le Thanh Hoa Fall 2025 creation came as quite a surprise.
It certainly won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but I loved the explosion of colourful feathers contrasted against the dramatic white train. It was fun seeing her head in a completely different direction.

Soft Goth
Marsai Martin wore Salih Balta Fall 2026, proving once again that she isn’t afraid to experiment. This look balanced toughness with delicacy in a way that felt refreshingly unexpected for her.
Familiar Illusion
Serena Page’s Rahul Mishra Fall 2024 gown immediately reminded me of Chase Infiniti’s and Teyana Taylor’s body-mapped illusion Thom Browne looks. It created a similar visual effect while still standing firmly on its own.
Tailored With Fringe
Skai Jackson gave sharp tailoring a fresh spin in Do Long. The dramatic fringe transformed what could have been a straightforward look into one of her strongest fashion moments to date.
Golden Moment
Tia Mowry wore a Nadine Merabi gold embellished mini dress. It felt fun, confident and full of personality, which is exactly how I like to see her dress. This was full of charm.
