The rest of the dress consisted of an ankle-length skirt imprinted with a floral motif in red, pink and green. Cameron amped up the drama with a leather buckle choker, and added small silver hoops. She later delivered a performance in an equally memorable look consisting of a metallic bra top (the pièce de resistance) layered under a white button-down shirt and oversize blazer with padded shoulders, and a maxi skirt. The singer and actress made a sharp entrance in a leather and floral ensemble from Paco Rabanne, designed by Julien Dossena. Looking equal parts sweet and edgy, she essentially styled a belt as a strapless top, the front of it boasting two small cutouts between the buckles. To finish, her black velvet platform sandals, metallic manicure, braided hair, and sharp eyeliner rounded out the edgy theme.

Dove Cameron explained why her brunette hair color has been a "total identity shift for me" during an exclusive interview with E! News at the 2022 MTV VMAs.

Makeup artist Kale Teter gave the singer a dramatic smoky eye, complete with sharp graphic white liner and a brown lip, wearing KVD Beauty's newest Everlasting Hyperlight Liquid Lipstick launch for the red carpet affair.
