Tyla Rates Her Iconic Red Carpet Looks In 'My Life In 20 Questions'

1) Balmain at the 2024 Met Gala

"I'm gonna remember this forever. Everything just literally fell into place with this one. Initially, I wasn't sure about it, because I was like, 'Is this just gonna be a nude dress?' Olivier [Rousteing] was like, 'Trust!' He sent us samples. And when I saw the samples, it was real sand on material. I was like, 'What the heck?' And then I was like, 'Yes, I would love to be this girl.' I did the fittings and everything, and I fell in love with the dress. It literally went insane. So yeah, 10 out of 10."

2) Roberto Cavalli at the 2024 MTV EMAs

"This one is yummy. With this one, I saw a post where Roberto Cavalli announced that they were bringing back this dress. And I always loved this dress because I saw it on Aaliyah and I'm a huge fan of Aaliyah. So when I heard that he was bringing it back, I really wanted to wear it for an MTV award show, because she wore for an MTV award show. I got the blue one, which is cute. I love this look. I would rate this also a 10."

3) Jean Paul Gaultier at the Billboard Women In Music Awards

"This one was very exciting. I usually like ripped up stuff and things that are asymmetric and mini and all of that. So this was a different version of it and that's why I really liked it. It was a full dress, fully covered, but not really. And the lumo nails! My toes were even lumo yellow. This one, I was eating. Again, 10."

4) Versace at the 2024 Grammys

"My Grammy dress guys! I was stressing about this dress when I heard I got nominated. I was so excited and instantly I started thinking about what I was gonna wear. I was actually in Thailand, so I was on phone calls. I was supposed to be relaxing but I was not. And Versace, obviously, they did this dress and they killed it. And for my first Grammy. This is a look, don't play. Once again, a 10."
