Loofah Chic: Ariana Grande Ends VMAs in Tulle-Voluminous Pink Tutu

Ariana Grande delivered a fashionnight performance at the 2025 MTV VMAs, debuting four show-stopping looks, but it was her finale that stole the spotlight. DJ-turned-fashion icon blessed the stage in what fans lovingly called a "literal loofah"—a pale-pink tulle minidress that mashes balletcore with soap-core drama. The frothy skirt and cinched bodice, topped with a semi-sheer high neckline, read like a tutu turned couture fantasy. Paired with sky-high pumps and her hair in a slick bun, Grande looked like Glinda rewriting fairy-tale fashion. 

Ultimate Fashion Finale: Ariana Gracefully in Glinda-Style Pink Tutu at VMAs

Earlier in the night, the star proved every glance counted: she kicked things off in a gothic, polka-dot Fendi dress with a pink peplum, shimmered through a paint-splattered white ballgown while accepting Best Pop, and wowed in a sheer black gothic-style number en route.

With seven MTV VMA nominations—including Video of the Year and Best Pop Artist—and two moon-man wins in hand, Grande’s sartorial journey through the night was both a celebration and an exclamation. Emotionally resonant and visually unforgettable, it was arguably one of her most fashion-forward red carpet moments to date.
