South African pop sensation Tyla has once again sent social media into a frenzy, commanding the spotlight at the Billboard Women in Music Awards.

There to present the Breakthrough Award to her friend and She Did it Again collaborator, Zara Larsson, the singer left very little to the imagination in a daring, risqué feather ensemble by Javier Collazo that perfectly accentuated her signature physique and effortless star power.

Seemingly channelling "cave woman chic," one year after recreating Halle Berry's The Flintstones look, Tyla's daring dress strategically covered all the need-to-know areas while leaving most of her body on full display.

The avant-garde ensemble, styled by Katie Qian, who was part of the team behind Tyla's iconic Balmain sand dress for the 2024 Met Gala, relied on clever draping to maintain its risqué aesthetic, emphasising the singer's confidence as she took on the red carpet.

The outfit tied into the Grammy Award-winner's signature distressed aesthetic, showing off her love for edgy and unconventional style.

As Tyla prepares for her anticipated album, she once again pushed the boundaries of red carpet fashion, proving that she isn't afraid to take massive style risks on the global stage.

Londie London and Shamiso Mosaka roast Tyla

In an earlier report, Briefly News shared Londie London and Shamiso Mosaka's reactions to Tyla's dress for the NAACP Image Awards.

The reality TV stars argued that the look was far too "basic" for a superstar like Tyla, claiming that she or her stylists could have put more effort into "glamming" her up for the event.

Their critique of Tyla's look was met with backlash from fans, who defended the singer while accusing Londie and Shamiso of "hating" on her.
