WWD Report Card: Lil Nas X’s Leather Pants to Machine Gun Kelly’s Black Tongue
The season finale of “SNL” saw major moments from Anya Taylor-Joy and Lil Nas X, and the Billboard Awards had their fair share of over-the-top fashion. Here are the week’s most talked about looks.
Machine Gun Kelly: 4
By far the biggest attention-grabbing part of this look was his black tongue, which gave a hard-core rock ‘n’ roll spin to the look. The Balmain runway look is yet another example of how much men’s eveningwear has evolved.

Doja Cat: 4
Doja Cat is the new Beetlejuice in this Balmain ensemble — and we love it. The groovy bell-bottom tights paired with the bikini top and oversize sleeves are pure fun. We could do without the big medallion, but we are game if she is.

DaBaby: 4.5
This is a way of wearing allover green we can get behind. The layered pink turtleneck and bright pink fedora give a fun ’60s vibe to this Gucci leisure suit. The bling and the white sneaks make it modern.

Lil Nas X: 5
Certified fashion icon Lil Nas X managed to make a statement even when ripping his clothes. His ab-baring cropped leather jacket and matching lace up, flame-adorned leather pants by Mowalola Ogunlesi were the perfect choice for his eye-popping performance. We’d be lying if we said we hadn’t watched it 50-plus times.
