On this day in 1991, Prince performed "Gett Off" on the @MTV @vmas with his band, the New Power Generation, dressed in an unforgettable yellow lace suit.



The performance came at a moment of reinvention for Prince, who had been refining the backing band that would make their recording debut on the Prince and the New Power Generation release Diamonds and Pearls on October 1, 1991. "Gett Off" had been released as the first single from the album earlier that summer, and the steamy, Randee St. Nicholas-directed video had debuted on MTV in August.



For his MTV Video Music Awards performance, Prince and a cast of dancers brought the "Gett Off" video to life.



"The show was like a 1990s version of Caligula, with Roman columns aflame in the background while an orgy of dancers writhed sensually in every direction around the creative genius," @Billboard wrote.



A few minutes into the already magnetic performance, Prince removed his yellow Cloud guitar and spun around to reveal his boldest statement of all: two symmetrical openings on the backside of his yellow lace pants, which he accentuated with a booty shake and a smile.



Decades later, one of Prince's clothing designers, @Stacialangdesign, still remembers the moment when she first sketched the "butt-out pants" for Prince.



After receiving her directions, she brought two sketches to Prince's office for review. "It was just him and me... looking at the sketch... so quietly," Lang continued. "I cleared my throat and said, 'Prince, I've done two versions for you, one with more exposure, and one with less.' Without a word, he took a pencil and put an X thru the version with 'more exposure.' After all, a man must have some semblance of modesty, right?"
