Tyla had five impressive and fun looks that tapped into the early 2000s. She wore vintage Roberto Cavalli from the Spring/Summer 2006 collection.
For her hair Tyla rocked cornrows that feel on the side of her face. Her outfits featured her favourite staples, such as denim shorts, which she wore for the orange carpet.
The 'Bliss' hitmakers' first look, a Roberto Cavalli vintage, a sunset gradient mini dress, paid homage to the tigers (her fans) and the 2000s. One of her looks also resembled a look from the girl group Destiny's Child's camouflage 'Survivor' looks.

She also wore a cobalt polo dress from Berlin label Sia Arnika with the slogan 'THE PEOPLE WANT MORE'. The slogans didn't stop there, her final look, which got slimed on was a denim shirt and a black t-shirt written 'WE WANNA PARTY'.
Fashion critics are divided on Tyla's outfit, with some loving the looks and the creativity, while some aren't took happy about the length.
Along with dazzling audiences with her sizzling outfits, Tyla also made waves by becoming the first African act to win Favorite Global Music Star in Kids' Choice Awards history.

WATCH: Dream comes true for student who managed to get Tyla as his date for his matric dance
Matriculant Mollwane Madiba's dream came true when Grammy award-winning singer Tyla showed up to his matric dance. A dream come true: matric student Mollwane Madiba with his date, Tyla at his matric dance. Picture: @BALUCIAGA/X Dreams come true for those who are persistent and patient enough. These words hold true for matric student Mollwane Madiba. After months of campaigning like a politician in election season and with a child-like conviction that was borderline delusional, Madiba's dream of having Grammy award-winning singer Tyla as his matric dance partner come true. The South African global star attended the matric dance after many people thought Madiba's dream wouldn't become a reality. Even a day before the dance, doubt began to creep in as Madiba started asking people who might be interested in being his date to reach out to him. 'I just got to Sandton to get my suit, I don't want to go to this dance alone,' he said in a video. 'If there's anyone who wants to go with me, message me ASAP [as soon as possible].'

In one video students ask 'Who do you think Mollwane is taking to MD?' followed by responses of 'Tyla, obviously.' Using the hashtag #MOandTYLAForMD, almost all the videos feature Tyla's song Push 2 Start. Madiba has seemingly met Tyla, as he has a photo of himself with the Water singer. In one video shot in what appears to be a school library, the photo of the two is displayed prominently on bookshelves, walls and wherever it can be seen.
