Lizzo took the stage at the 2020 Billboard Music Awards and automatically sent a strong message.

The “Truth Hurts” singer accepted the Top Song Sales Artist award at tonight’s show in a bold one-shoulder mini dress, coated in the word “Vote” ahead of the upcoming November election. The design is a custom take on a gown that debuted during Christian Siriano’s spring ’21 runway show during New York Fashion Week in September; the pull-sleeve full-length version of the gown retails for $3,800 on the designer’s website.

As for shoes, the “Good As Hell” songstress pulled off one of the year’s most unexpected footwear trends: big-toe sandals. Lizzo’s version of the style came in the form of thin-strap black heels with an ankle-wrap detail.

Big-toe silhouettes became a celebrity-endorsed style last summer and have since continued to appear on the likes of Katy Perry, Gabrielle Union and Katie Holmes amongst others.

The 2020 Billboard Music Awards air live tonight from The Dolby Theater in Los Angeles at 8 p.m. ET on NBC and celebrate the best in the music industry. Kelly Clarkson returns to host the show for her third year in a row and Post Malone leads the nominees with 16 different nods in 15 different categories. Lil Nas X follows suit with 13 nominations, right ahead of Billie Eilish and Khalid both with 12 awards up for grabs.
