Miley Cyrus in Balmain at Billboard Music Awards: doily fug or rock ‘n’ roll?

Miley Cyrus

Miley Cyrus hit the Billboard music awards while wearing this edgy but ultimately gaudy black-and-white jumpsuit from Balmain. Miley’s been hitting it out of the fashion ballpark lately with her recent punky look at the Met Gala as well as a cute Valentino jumpsuit for Maxim, but her luck has run out with this checkered, crocheted jumpsuit that is probably meant to look rock ‘n’ roll but comes off as part doily, part Indy 500 checkered flag, and part deck of cards. Miley’s brash and sassy attitude on the red carpet helps her pull off the look somewhat, but it’s still a major eye sore. Oh well, one can’t be perfect all the time.

Miley’s hair and makeup are similarly brash. Her makeup (and especially that bold red lipstick) goes with her overall look, but the blonde-piled-on-brunette aspect is throwing me off a bit. Those darker roots aren’t bad in and of themselves, but the back view looks like Miley’s hairdresser has overdone the underdone look. Does that make sense? Oh, and while Miley walks alone yet again, Liam is supposedly partying it up in Cannes. Miley’s wearing her ring here, but I just don’t care anymore. In fact, I’m more over this relationship than Liam seems to be at the moment.

Amber Rose

Amber Rose looked stunning in a simple black dress that draped beautifully and ended in lovely fringe-esque detail at the bottom. Her legs look great, and of course, Wiz Khalifa is so proud to have her on his arm. These two are the cutest together.

  1. don't kill me i'm french says:

    Amber Rose look great and Miley’s suit is more for the stage than for a red carpet

  2. Minnie says:

    Is that Brigitte Nielsen?

  3. I just don’t like her face AT ALL. I know it’s an awful thing to say but I never understand when people say she is “pretty” or “sexy”. Maybe she is a nice girl but she sure as hell isn’t a great beauty…

    • Cece says:

      I agree, and in this particular pic, she looks swollen. I think that the eye make-up was a huge mistake.

      I think the bobbed hairstyle she had was the best to soften her face.

      • Camille (TheOriginal) says:

        I agree with you Cece. That bob hair cut really suited her.

        She looks awful here; horrible outfit and her eyes are too close together to wear eye makeup like that.

    • Tasha says:

      +1000

    • only1shmoo says:

      I’d say an even bigger turn-off is that everything she wears screams, “LOOK AT ME, I’M TRYING SO DAMN HARD!!!”

      I think that despite her claims 1 year+ ago about being proud of her curvy figure, every outfit she’s worn since she disappeared and reemerged as a thin pilates addict is intended to remind us of how petite she now is. It’s just irritating.

  4. Abra says:

    I think she looks cute.

    • Elle Kaye says:

      I agree. I think it is daring, yet sweet. It is better than the tired looks we see year after year. She is taking a chance, and she is young. Good for her…she has the body for it.

    • Nina W says:

      I agree, I think she pulls this off. My only quibble is the holes in the garment at the knee and thigh. The rips make it look cheap and detract from the over all effect. Pretty cheesy if you ask me, a celebrity wears your goods for one night, at one event, a designer should make damn sure it’s not falling apart during the red carpet!

  5. JenD says:

    Eek! I didn’t notice the doily detail last night while watching the show, but it’s even worse than the far away view.

  6. BooBooLaRue says:

    Amber Rose is quite a lovely woman, but did I miss something? What does she do? Miley just tragic.

    • JenD says:

      I think she is/was a model, but she’s more famous for who she is with. She dated Kanye West, and now is with this guy.

    • Tasha says:

      She was a video girl that became famous for dating Kanye West.

  7. DreamyK says:

    Someone needs to buy Miley some fashion sense along with a different color of lipstick. All her black/white red lipstick combos are slurring together.

    • Arock says:

      So us she a mine dressed as a harlequin or a harlequin dressed as a mine?
      Totally agree about the lip color. I have a hard enough time telling the days apart with out Miley Cyrus trying to resell the same jump suit.
      “Stop trying to make fetch work…”

  8. ds says:

    Oh this is just all sorts of bad… but she’s so pretty

  9. pretty says:

    she looks like a Pidgeot.

  10. j.eyre says:

    Harlequins usually wear hats, don’t they?

    (Amber looks beautiful)

  11. Elle says:

    Am I the only one that noticed Miley’s pantsuit/jumpsuit looks ripped in a couple of places (knee, inner thigh)? Not sure if this is part of the design, but it doesn’t look right.

    • Nance says:

      I didn’t. Me too I wonder, is it because she’s “punk” or it just mess up?…

    • poppy says:

      definitely looks torn/busted in a few spots.

    • juststeph says:

      I was just scrolling down to see if anyone else noticed.

    • Jane says:

      Totally spot-on. This idiot ripped the thing up. Balmain is out-of-this world expesive. A sweater is worth 3-5 thousand from them. Imagine how much this outfit cost that she ruined.

    • Nina W says:

      I noticed it immediately and I call that cheap ass workmanship to not hold up for ONE evening on a young women at a soiree. Some may say Miley is hard on the clothes but I object, the design is fragile and a good designer should have lined it to ensure it would not disintegrate on her on the red carpet.

  12. Nance says:

    Her makeup is improved at least…

    For the jumpsuit, I like it, but it didn’t go well with the white background. I would personnaly not wear this, no zipper on my bum.

  13. Dawn says:

    Okay I think Miley is rocking it and I think Amber Rose is beautiful too.

  14. Joanna says:

    I am getting Freddie Mercury vibes, therefore it wins by default.

  15. moon says:

    I think Miley’s outfit is gorgeous! And I’m not the biggest fan of her usual sartorial choices.

    The cut is nice, the pattern is cool and the rest of it is very elegant. I’m loving the white. Not to mention this is a damn hard outfit to pull off – you need to have an amazing body and seriously long slim legs to look good in this kind of thing. Spanx can’t save you here.

  16. Mirella says:

    I think she looks good! Amber Rose looks amazing.

  17. Suzy from Ontario says:

    I like it. I think she looks great lately.

  18. squeakie says:

    i actually love this look. It is unique and fits well with her style, I think it would be better if the checked part was solid black but props to miley for having the confidence to rock it!

  19. bns says:

    I love the jumpsuit, but not on her. She’ll never be a sexy, badass rock n roll chick like she wants to be. She should just give it up.

  20. Justaposter says:

    I thought she looked great. Not to mention mad love for her eyerolling Justin Beiber! Free pass from me!

  21. hateonit. says:

    did she get her tooth fixed? it doesn’t seem as overlapping as it used to be…..this outfit is fug and her chipmunk face can not pull of short hair!!!! ugh her style is hideous ever since she cut her hair. the bob she had right before she chopped it off was actually pretty on her. idk why she chopped her hair off and keeps trying to do this punk thing it’s not working on her at alllll.

  22. Asdfg says:

    Maxim’s #1! *rolls eyes*

    She needs to get over herself! Her being/buying her way to Maxim #1 has gone to her head!

  23. Get a clue says:

    I think she is adorable. Love her style.

  24. jacquie109 says:

    Not that I care too much about Miley but she really needs to quit with the black eye liner. It works when you have huge eyes, or you’re not wearing red lipstick, but the two on her it just bad…. Don’t people own mirrors, or do they really just think “oh I look goooood” LOL.

  25. anneesezz says:

    I never have and still do not understand why she ever became a huge star. She is not a good actress or singer and she is not beautiful or sexy. Plus she is really irritating. I really don’t get it.

    • Nina W says:

      “Huge star” being a relative term I guess. She’s famous but hardly a “star” in my mind.

  26. Isa says:

    First time last night I noticed how flat her face is. I don’t find her attractive or pretty at all. Even with miracle makeup she looks weird.

  27. sharylmj says:

    GO AWAY MILEY CYRUS!!!!!!!

  28. serena says:

    I like Miley’s outfit, it suits her really well. She’s looking cool these days.

  29. phlyfiremama says:

    I think she looks AWESOME. By far, the most memorable outfit of the evening~everything else seemed so bland and done before. THIS is one of the places that you let your quirky side ou; it isn’t the Grammys. Ok, I’m seriously becoming Team Miley~I think I need an intervention!!! What was up with all the granny dresses on the carpet???

  30. Alexa says:

    Miley’s completely ROCKIN’ MY WORLD these days! I find her absolutely refreshing in this endless sea of sugar cookie Barbie-looking drone celebs. THANK YOU for trying something new and looking different Miley. The result (as far as I’m concerned) is you’re the new Angelina Jolie of fierce hotness!

  31. Simply Red says:

    I love both looks on both ladies..
    I could rock both of those outfits

  32. april says:

    It’s all ugly. I don’t think Miley has the face for short hair.

  33. Carolyn says:

    Of all the outfits Miley could have chosen…she chose this?

    Miley is going down the Goop PR path …wear awful oufit – get more PR space. Sad.

  34. lisa says:

    miley’s ginormous caps distract me

  35. Brenda says:

    Please make it stop. It’s like one of those creepy harlequin clowns. She needs to add some yellow to those white things in her mouth to help appear human.

  36. MademoiselleRose says:

    I like the outfit, it’s different, but I so can’t stand her. She’s arrogant and her voice is so nasily I just can’t stand listening to her.

    OMG it’s the same people over and over and over. Do they actually do any work, or just go to parties and red carpets everyday. If you’ve got something real to promote, by all means, but if not GO AWAY…

  37. JudyK says:

    Before Miley’s new haircut, I found her plain.

    Now think she’s drop-dead gorgeous.
