Jonathan Van Ness Strutted the MTV VMAs Red Carpet in Lightning Red Heels and a Cape

Updated on 8/27/2019 at 8:05 AM

Can you handle the CON-FI-DONCE? Jonathan Van Ness was a vision in black at the MTV VMAs red carpet on Aug. 26, and his lacy organza cape is giving me major Maleficent vibes. The 32-year-old Queer Eye star was ready for a night out in a figure-hugging black romper and a matching floor-length cape reminiscent of dragon scales — Khaleesi is shaking. Jonathan paired the Atelier by FANG cape, with a pair of Prada lightning bolt satin pumps, and I have a feeling Tan France would definitely approve. Keep reading for a closer look at Jonathan's beguiling red carpet outfit.
