Halsey dug deep into the archives for their look on Wednesday in New York at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards . The artist and About-Face beauty founder arrived at this year’s installment of the VMAs wearing a dress from Versace’s fall 1996 couture collection.
Halsey paired the Swarovski-beaded silk chiffon gown, designed by Gianni Versace , with matching burgundy nail art, drop chain-link earrings and burnished rings. They completed the look with a taupe lip — similar to the one Elizabeth Hurley famously wore with the same dress back in 1996, when the model and actor wore the sleeveless gown to the grand opening party of Versace’s Fifth Avenue boutique in New York City.

Halsey nodded to the origin of their Versace dress, telling MTV on the red carpet, “This dress was a miracle to find. This was designed by Gianni Versace for Elizabeth Hurley in 1996,” Halsey shared, adding, “it hasn’t been worn by anybody else until now, and I’m loving it.”

This isn’t the first time Halsey has worn Versace on the red carpet to an awards show. In 2017, Halsey accepted the award for dance song of the year at the iHeartRadio Music Awards along with the Chainsmokers for their collaborative track “Closer,” while wearing a runway look from Versus Versace’s spring 2017 collection .
