2023 is set the be the year of Miley. She has started the year off strong with her release ‘Flowers’, the first single from her upcoming album Endless Summer Vacation set for release in March. Cyrus announced the single via Instagram with a caption that read “NEW YEAR, NEW MILEY, NEW SINGLE. FLOWERS JANUARY 13.” And so, ahead of what appears to be a Miley renaissance, here is a look back on some of her best looks so far.
Her Vintage NYE Looks
Yet again, confirming that 2023 is going to be her year, Miley Cyrus rang in the New Year with her annual NYE party in a variety of vintage looks. One of the standout looks was the sparkling asymmetric mini dress from Bob Mackie’s AW2002 collection. However, our personal favourite was the green and orange floor-length Versace gown from SS2006. The ethereal look was elegant and sophisticated but paired with Miley’s beachy waves perfectly matched the singer’s free-spirited personality.
EVERY Gucci Campaign
There are very few celebrity and designer pairings that are as perfect as Miley and Gucci. The moment that Miley was announced as an ambassador for Gucci Beauty’s Flora perfumes, we knew that something beautiful had been created. Both Gucci and Cyrus are true maximalists and Gucci has a retro feel that fits in with Miley’s persona seamlessly. Because of this carefully curated alignment, every Gucci campaign featuring Miley presents us with the most impeccable looks that are not only fashionable but also let Miley’s personality shine through.
When She Looked Like an Absolute Rockstar at Glastonbury
Nevermind the trend of dressing like a rockstar’s girlfriend, Miley Cyrus has been dressing like the rockstar she is for years now, and we are here for it! And taking centre stage at Glastonbury in skintight leather trousers, knee high boots covered in buckles, a white cropped vest and dripping in jewellery confirmed that she is THAT girl.
Pink Feathers at Miley Cyrus Presents Stand by You
When Miley Cyrus does a Pride event, you just know that the looks are going to be good. The show was packed with elaborate looks, each one as loud and proud as the last. Our personal favourite was the bright pink feathered Jenny Packham dress that Miley wore on stage and in promotional photos.
All Leather at the iHeartRadio Music Festival
Another look from Miley’s rocker chick era, Cyrus took to the stage at the iHeartRadio Music Festival in an all-leather ensemble, even down to the gloves. The look matched her performance perfectly which was energetic yet grungy. The comparison of this look against her more 70s inspired pastel looks just show that Miley truly can do it all.
Met Gala 2018
Miley’s 2018 Met Gala look is one that will go down in the history books. The low draping Stella McCartney gown was paired with a dainty cross necklace sitting at the base of the cowl neck tying into the theme of “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination”. But this gown was not just a party in the front, it also had a beautiful and daringly low back.
THAT YSL Dress
Potentially our favourite Miley fashion moment of all time was the sparkling Saint Laurent gown that she wore to the 2019 Vanity Fair Oscars Party. The gown shimmered from head to toe, had a delicate plunge neckline that knotted at the waist and a thigh high split, the combination of all of these elements worked to create not only the perfect dress but the perfect dress for Miley, classic yet edgy.
