And red carpet season continues! The biggest names in music, film and pop culture gathered at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, sunday night for the 2022 American Music Awards (AMA’s). Drake, and Beyoncé, were among the most nominated stars of the night, with music legend, Lionel Richie receiving this year’s Icon Award. While on the red carpet (rather black carpet) at the annual fan voted award ceremony, celebs turned up in looks. From color pops of pink and Tiffany blue and animal print to sculptural gowns — lots of trends took over the carpet.

There was one clear underlining theme; monochromatic, moody black and white looks. From Tinashe in a white corset top and black skirt from Marc Jacobs FW22, Coco Jones in an graphic, assysemtrical black and white Annakiki dress, Muni Long in a sculptural pleated Juana Martin dress, and Latto in a black coseted leotard with a dramatic black veil.
