Kravitz arrived in a sleek all-black leather ensemble, featuring a formfitting studded bomber jacket and boot-cut pants. He wore a statement leather tie adorned with a jewel cross against his bare torso, along with a pyramid-studded belt, black shades and a chunky silver bracelet. He completed the look with contrasting white boots.

Stylist Rodney Burns curated the look, with Kravitz wearing his signature locs free and down.

Kravitz’s latest album, “Blue Electric Light” was released on May 24. The rock musician’s 12th studio album leans heavily into funk and features nine original songs inspired by “exchanging love.” His song “Human,” from the new album was nominated in the rock category for best video. In the video, Kravitz wears his familiar all leather uniform, this time, in shades of shimmering gold and completed with a pair of snakeskin boots.

The CFDA Fashion Icon Award honoree has received eight MTV VMA nominations. In 1993, he won his first and only Moonman in the category of Best Male Video for “Are You Gonna Go My Way.”

Outside the music studio, Kravitz has been putting his creativity to work with a capsule collection in collaboration with Ray-Ban that released in March.

“As a lifelong fan of Ray-Ban , their timeless style has always resonated with me,” Kravitz said in a statement. “The Ray-Ban Reverse collaboration is a dream come true, allowing me to merge my love for music and fashion with such an iconic brand. It’s about breaking boundaries, embracing individuality and seeing the world from a new perspective through those innovative lenses.”

The MTV VMAs recognize the year’s best music videos, artists and songs. Megan Thee Stallion made her hosting debut during the 2024 ceremony, held at the UBS Stadium in Elmont, N.Y., on Wednesday. Katy Perry received the honorary Video Vanguard Award, while performers included Kravitz, Sabrina Carpenter, Eminem and Karol G.
