Chrome and bubblegum pink took over the stage at the MTV VMAs on Sunday, but Jack Harlow added his own pastel twist to the award show in a mint-green suit made completely out of vinyl. On Aug. 28, the “Nail Tech” singer took the stage alongside Lil Nas X to accept the best collaboration award for “Industry Baby.” While Lil Nas X looked like a walking work of art in his second look of the night — a maxi dress covered in silver cutouts — Harlow had his own moment in the spotlight with a suit so glossy, we could practically hear the material squeaking through our screens.
Harlow’s Diesel jacket, which he layered over a white ribbed tank top, is a boiled wool-blend piece with a lustrous vinyl finish, creating the textural effect of “wrinkled elephant”‘s skin, per the brand’s website. The rapper paired the look with matching vinyl pants and white sneakers, an ensemble that glistened under the stage lights and made a case for pastels in late summer.
During the award show, Harlow also wore a pair of black slacks and a sequin button-up that mirrored the night sky during his glamorous “First Class” performance with Fergie. On the red carpet, the “Churchill Downs” singer wore a leather suit with a double-breasted blazer in chocolate brown layered over a satin turtleneck and matching pants. He styled the look with square-toed boots and ombré sunglasses.
