Miley Cyrus has built a successful career by always pushing the boundaries and surprising her fans. At the 2015 MTV VMAs, she stole the spotlight with 11 unique and eye-catching outfits that showcased her bold and adventurous personality as she hosted the event in Los Angeles. From a sparkly jumpsuit to a daring pink latex outfit, Miley embraced her wild side and left her Disney persona far behind. Fans were treated to a variety of eccentric looks, including a space warrior-inspired ensemble, a flower power jumpsuit, and a pom-pom embellished dress with cut-outs. Miley’s fearless fashion choices, such as see-through plastic garments and bold pink latex pieces, continued to show her preference for risqué and unconventional styles. Throughout the night, Miley’s outfits were as vibrant and colorful as her personality, cementing her reputation as a pop princess unafraid to take risks and show some skin.
Miley’s wild side was on full display as the night went on, with her poses becoming more eccentric to match her bold and colorful outfits. From a daring high-cut silver leotard to an outfit inspired by the LGBT pride flag, Miley embraced her unique style with confidence. Behind the scenes, Miley, who recently opened up about her bisexuality, rocked a fun and quirky square-shaped costume that paid homage to the pride flag. She later took to the stage in a more toned-down mirror-embellished crop top and trousers, before pulling out all the stops for her final performance. During her explosive finale, Miley surprised fans by announcing her new album, “Miley Cyrus And Her Dead Petz,” and donned a playful leotard with eccentric accessories. And just when you thought she couldn’t get any more out-there, Miley made a statement in the press room with a pink latex mini dress featuring the inflatable message, ‘Do It,’ and a bizarre pig snout headband. Miley truly embraced her fearless and controversial persona throughout the evening, leaving everyone talking about her eye-catching and eccentric fashion choices.
