    Megan Thee Stallion strutted onto the 2021 Grammy Awards red carpet wearing a bright orange gown by Dolce & Gabbana that boasted an incredibly big bow and a thigh-high slit. She perfectly paired her beautiful ensemble with Chopard Jewelry, diamond-studded sandal heels, and a handful of priceless awards to make this red carpet look one to remember. 

    The "Captain Hook" rapper had a total of 7 nominations at the 2021 BET Awards, including “Best Collaboration” and “Video Of The Year.”

    Cardi B fashionably walked the streets of New York City in a two-toned leather suit by Sally LaPointe. Looking like Money, the busy entertainer accessorized the custom color-blocking ensemble with a pair of white Christian Louboutin pumps that took her street style moment to new heights.

    Doja Cat dazzled at the 2020 MTV Video Music Awards. Wearing a pink and shimmery Versace dress, the trendy entertainer shined in front of the virtual audience as she snagged her award for the night. To complement the minidress, featuring a deep v-neckline and fabulous fringes, she rocked an extra-long braided ponytail that gracefully fell to her ankle, adding some flavor to her high-fashion style.

    Rocking waist-length, mermaid-inspired tresses, Latto showcased her edgy side at the Growing Up Hip Hop: Atlanta celebration. The performer gave fans a glimpse of her tiny waistline in a black bra, which she paired with a leather two-piece jacket and pants set that gave us all the vibes.

    Saweetie was ready for the paparazzi at the Prada Fashion Show during Milan Fashion Week last year. Making the street her runway, the “Fast Motion” rapper donned a chic androgenous look and stunted in a men’s suit from the designer that was a noticeable departure from her usual glam girl style.
