Avril Lavigne, 2021

Former MTV staple Avril Lavigne, absent from the music limelight for some time, sparked enthusiasm with news of her attendance at the 2021 VMAs. However, the anticipation swiftly fizzled upon the reveal of her fashion choice — a glaring hot pink plaid ensemble paired with a glittery bra, a stark departure from her early 2000s aesthetic.

Despite the jarring plaid attire causing us some fashion distress, it’s impossible to overlook the unique touch of the jacket unfolding into a heart shape. It’s also commendable that she’s keeping her trademark intense smokey eyeliner alive!
