Former Disney princess and current crop-top queen Miley Cyrus has done a lot of growing up since her Hannah Montana days. When she first stepped into the spotlight at age 11, Miley chose a slew of Capri pants, spaghetti-strap dresses, and cowboy boots — all with a slightly country edge, perhaps inspired by her Nashville roots and father Billy Ray Cyrus’s influence. But as the young star’s music career took off and her desire to shed her Disney image grew, hemlines were shortened, heels were heightened, and pants became optional. Now in her early twenties, Miley’s style has become edgier, more revealing, and very intentionally in-your-face. See Miley just being Miley, from her first, very mature Academy Awards look to her controversial Blurred Lines getup, in our look book.
