Last night, BET aired their 9th annual Hip Hop Awards. Filmed in Atlanta, GA, a city known for its ostentatious style, this year's festivities were marked by gents rocking some pretty flamboyant looks. From Rich Homie Quan's shirtless red carpet entrance to Offset of Migos rocking a gilded Versace bathrobe, the overall vibe was bigger, bolder, and brighter. Here, we've culled the flashiest menswear looks from hip hop's greatest. Be warned, though: you might need sunglasses to stand the glare. Check out our picks below and watch highlights from the show here.
Migos took the stage in a plethora of paisley swirls, Versace Medusa heads, and intricate silks.
