2000, Lil Kim
Lil’ Kim, renowned as the unofficial queen of jaw-dropping VMA ensembles, certainly lived up to her reputation at the 2000 awards show. Her choice? A striking red plastic outfit that left everyone in awe. She dared to rock a bustier romper crafted from transparent red plastic and threw on a matching vibrant red plastic jacket.

Adorned with an array of straps, studs, and sharp plastic edges, one can’t help but wonder about the level of discomfort that came with this audacious attire. On the bright side, that PVC jacket was more than just a fashion statement; it was practically a raincoat, ensuring that Lil’ Kim was prepared for any unexpected weather events.
