‘Something Beautiful’ Might Be Miley Cyrus’ Most Stylish Era Yet

In an array of archive and fresh-off-the-runway looks, the singer has been killing the game.

A new album often heralds a new era—not just musically, but sartorially. And no one understands the art of reinvention quite like Miley Cyrus. Fresh off the release of Something Beautiful, her ninth studio album, the pop provocateur has reemerged with a wardrobe that strikes the most satisfying balance between raw and polished glamour we crave.

In New York City, where the singer has been promoting the album with a slew of appearances, her fashion choices have served as a masterclass in modern rock ‘n’ roll refinement. Think an exciting array of leather—thigh-skimming Mugler minis and oversized motorcycle jackets—tailoring, and 70s-style eveningwear.

Styled by Bradley Kenneth, the mix of vintage with current-season treasures—from archival Thierry Mugler pulled from her personal closet to a subtle Marlo tote by The Row and dramatic McQueen for the 2025 Oscars red carpet. Sticking to a tight palette of black, white and the occasional pop of colour, with a host of textures, embellishments and lived-in fabrics—and hair, too—the former Disney star proves the enduring power of monochromatics.

Cyrus’s latest style era is as much a visual album as the one she’s just dropped, embracing an edgy retro aesthetic with a modern sensibility. Something beautiful, indeed.

Below, we chronicle the singer’s best looks as she promotes her new album.
