Miley Cyrus Leaves Little to the Imagination in Jaw-Dropping Gown: “Time to Grow Up”?

14 June 2025

Miley Cyrus has nev­er been one to fol­low the rules — and in 2025, she’s prov­ing that yet again. From Dis­ney dar­ling to bold fash­ion icon, she’s been on a relent­less style streak pro­mot­ing her new album, Some­thing Beau­ti­ful. This time, all eyes weren’t just on her voice, but her fash­ion — and it’s set­ting social media on fire.

Ear­li­er this week, Miley took to New York City with one of her bold­est looks to date. For­get sub­tle­ty. She chan­neled pure cou­ture chaos — and fans are still catch­ing their breath.

The Mai­son Margiela Moment That Set the Inter­net Ablaze

Miley’s sur­prise appear­ance at Rough Trade NYC was far from just anoth­er album pro­mo stop. She strut­ted in a pow­er­ful mix of grunge and glam that only she could pull off. Her out­fit includ­ed:

• A bead­ed fringe hal­ter top from Mai­son Margiela’s Spring 2015 cou­ture col­lec­tion
• Dis­tressed den­im shorts, giv­ing that rebel­lious rock-n-roll atti­tude
• Mai­son Margiela × Chris­t­ian Louboutin chunky boots that ele­vat­ed the out­fit (lit­er­al­ly and metaphor­i­cal­ly)
• And the final cher­ry on top? Futur­is­tic Gen­tle Mon­ster sun­glass­es to seal the look

No doubt about it — this was a love let­ter to chaos cou­ture, and Miley was the post­woman.

Time to Grow Up”? Pub­lic Reac­tions Are Mixed

For every fan that hailed her a “total icon,” anoth­er was less enthused. One com­ment — “Time to grow up. Don’t become Madon­na 2.” — stirred up the age-old debate: Is Miley break­ing bound­aries, or sim­ply push­ing them too far?

But here’s the thing. Isn’t that exact­ly what fash­ion icons do?

The Van­i­ty Fair Din­ner Look That Screamed ‘Mod­ern God­dess’

Lat­er that evening, Miley raised the stakes again — this time at the Van­i­ty Fair Din­ner. She slipped into a choco­late-brown gown that looked like it had been sculpt­ed straight onto her body. The fab­ric clung to every curve, and with an open back and cheeky cutouts, it was impos­si­ble to ignore.

She didn’t just wear that dress. She owned it.

The sub­tle shim­mer of the fab­ric under evening lights turned her into a liv­ing bronze stat­ue — raw, regal, and com­plete­ly unapolo­getic.

From Bold to Blonder: Miley’s Bleached Brow Era

If you thought the dra­ma stopped at gowns, think again. Miley’s been exper­i­ment­ing with her look in unex­pect­ed ways — and 2025 might just be her bold­est year yet. Her recent bleached brows (yes, eye­brows!) turned heads at the Oscars, adding a ghost­ly, edgy con­trast to her oth­er­wise old-Hol­ly­wood glam look.

Paired with a cus­tom black hal­ter gown from Alexan­der McQueen, lace gloves, and dia­mond jew­el­ry, she embod­ied vin­tage ele­gance with a rebel­lious twist. Think Mar­i­lyn Mon­roe… but if Mar­i­lyn had a punk phase.

Safe­ty Pins, Smokey Eyes, and Gut­sy Style

It’s not just gowns — Miley has been mak­ing fash­ion state­ments con­sis­tent­ly. Let’s rewind to her appear­ance at the 2024 Gram­mys, where she wore a gown made entire­ly of gold­en safe­ty pins. Most celebri­ties wouldn’t dare. But Miley?

She made it look effort­less. As fans said then, “No one could pull this off but you.”

Her smoky eye make­up, tou­sled bleached waves, and toned-down lips per­fect­ly bal­anced her dra­mat­ic ensem­bles — prov­ing that behind all the chaos lies a cal­cu­lat­ed, curat­ed fash­ion vision

Styling a Visu­al Album: Bradley Kenneth’s Influ­ence

Behind every icon­ic out­fit is a bril­liant styl­ist — and in Miley’s case, it’s Bradley Ken­neth, the mas­ter­mind align­ing her fash­ion with her music. The Some­thing Beau­ti­ful era isn’t just about sound — it’s a visu­al expe­ri­ence that blends vul­ner­a­bil­i­ty with raw pow­er.

From high cou­ture ref­er­ences to under­ground grunge aes­thet­ics, Miley’s wardrobe is as lay­ered as her lyrics. And that’s the point. Her style speaks before she sings.

Own­ing Her Evo­lu­tion — And the Crit­i­cism

Let’s be real: Miley’s no stranger to back­lash. Whether it was her infa­mous VMA per­for­mance in 2013 or her genre switch-ups, she’s built a career out of trans­for­ma­tion — and not every­one can keep up.

But that’s what makes Miley Miley. She’s nev­er let crit­ics box her in. In her own words, “Your love not just today, but for near­ly two decades means so much more to me than the words I can find at the end of a long, ful­fill­ing day.”

Trans­la­tion? She’s not here for approval. She’s here for expres­sion.

Final Thoughts: Miley Isn’t Just Wear­ing Fash­ion — She Is Fash­ion

From edgy cou­ture to raw rebel­lion, Miley Cyrus is redefin­ing what it means to grow up — on her own terms. Every look, every cut, every bleached brow is more than a style choice. It’s a state­ment.

Sure, some say it’s “too much.” But when has Miley ever played it safe?

As the world watch­es her con­fi­dent­ly blur the lines between art and fash­ion, one thing’s for sure — love her or hate her, Miley Cyrus is one of the few artists who keeps every­one talk­ing.
