Miley Cyrus’s Bold Outfits That Highlight What Liam Hemsworth Is Missing

Miley Cyrus proved she belongs amongst the best, most unforgettable celebrity revenge dress moments when she donned a fringed, bejeweled Schiaparelli dress at the 2025 Tribeca Film Festival. The SS25 haute couture look perfectly suited the launch of her new visual album, “Something Beautiful,” with its aesthetic focus on archival couture and Cyrus’ natural beauty. The elegantly crafted dress is a work of art, and the open-weave leaves very little to the imagination, revealing Cyrus’ slim, toned body. The look perfectly bridges the high art feel of the new album with Cyrus’ sexy personal style. This dramatic bombshell look is giving the one that got away.

At the 2025 Golden Globes, Miley Cyrus hit the runway in a low-back, body-hugging gown by Celine by Hedi Slimane. Paired with a 90s updo, this dress looks like something Pamela Anderson might have worn at the height of her fame. The glittering straps and cut aways add plenty of visual interest — as well as her revealed tattoos — give the minimal gown plenty of visual interest, even sans dramatic accessories. This look less little to the imagine, and a lot for ex-husband Liam Hemsworth to miss.

Miley Cyrus stepped out to sign autographs in a minimal, sheer look from Ludovic de Saint Sernin’s SS25 collection. With its filmy straps and gauzy texture, the delicate gown evoked the sexy, pared-back looks of the early ’90s. Cyrus opted to bare almost everything, forgoing a bra and wearing only a simple black thong — reminding everyone, including any ex-husbands who might happen to catch a glimpse, of just how enviably fit she is.

Miley Cyrus turned, again, to the fashion archives for a private preview performance of “Something Beautiful” — this time, a FW02 Roberto Cavalli mini dress once worn by pop star Christina Aguilera. Like so many of the looks she’s chosen to support this album, her simple makeup and hair emphasize her innate beauty. Meanwhile, the glittering, slightly sheer dress blends playful sexiness with cultured sophistication, somehow blending girl-next-door with pop icon. The exact flirty and thriving vibe anyone would hope to telegraph to an ex-partner

When Miley Cyrus stepped onstage to perform her award-winning song “Flowers” at the 2024 Grammy Awards, she did so in a glittering dress by designer Bob Mackie, with a long fringed skirt that moved hypnotically as Cyrus pranced and swaggered onstage. The song itself is an ode to rediscovering self-love in the wake of Cyrus’s split from Hemsworth, and the dress did justice to the triumphant moment when Cyrus changed out the song lyrics to cheer, “I just won my first Grammy.” If Liam Hemsworth happened to catch that moment, he would have seen a woman on top of the world, living her best life despite — or perhaps thanks to — the split.

Miley Cyrus blended sexy and rock-and-roll with her look for the 2023 launch of her album “Endless Summer Vacation.” That album cycle highlighted Cyrus’ post-divorce style transformation, an aesthetic expression of a woman done repressing herself to keep her partner happy. This full Gucci ensemble was the portrait of maximalist revelry — from the sexy, one-shoulder dress coated with sequins to the oversized teal fur coat. When it comes to revenge dressing, a short skirt and a big smile are key.

Divorced or happily single, Miley Cyrus looked radiant when she turned out for the FW23 Versace fashion show in a flowing gown with a mesh overlay, chain detailing, and a seriously sexy thigh-high slit. The black and white dress suited Cyrus’ hair during the era, which featured contrasting platinum blonde and black sections. The glam look seemed to signal that the pop star was rediscovering herself and making the kind of exciting choices that might have been discouraged by her marriage. It’s hard to imagine Liam Hemsworth seeing those photos and not feeling nostalgic for the bold girl he first fell in love with.

Miley Cyrus presented an award at the Daily Row’s Annual Fashion Los Angeles Awards in 2023 wearing a lingerie-inspired look from Versace. The cutaway corset top and pencil skirt pairing was elegant and sultry — another Cyrus outfit that was a total banger. The contrast between the velvet bustier and leather skirt added plenty of depth to this all black ensemble, which means that it might be a neutral color but it’s not definitely not boring. Surely this had Hemsworth missing every inch of Cyrus, from her edgy, two-toned hair down to the tips of her pointy toe shoes.
