Miley Cyrus Delivers a Masterclass in Modern Red-Carpet Glamour
Miley Cyrus arrived at the 2026 Golden Globe Awards with the kind of effortless authority that only she can command, reminding everyone why her red-carpet appearances are never just fashion moments, but cultural punctuation marks. Stepping onto the Beverly Hills carpet on Sunday night, Cyrus delivered a masterclass in dark glamour wearing a custom Saint Laurent gown designed by creative director Anthony Vaccarello—an ensemble that felt both timeless and unmistakably Miley.
The Grammy-winning artist, who was nominated for Best Original Song – Motion Picture for “Dream as One” from Avatar: Fire and Ash, leaned fully into Saint Laurent’s seductive codes. Her inky-black, sequined gown shimmered under the lights, its plunging neckline and back slit adding sensuality, while sculptural pleated shoulders fanned outward dramatically, evoking a peacock mid-display. It was theatrical without tipping into excess—a balance Cyrus understands instinctively.
Accessories were deliberate and striking. Cyrus completed the look with Tiffany & Co. jewelry, including a diamond necklace anchored by a commanding 15-carat emerald pendant, diamond stud earrings, and a coordinating ring. Oversized black sunglasses added a hint of rock-star irreverence, paired with black platform heels that grounded the look in her signature edge. The result was polished, powerful, and unmistakably her own.
Her beauty look echoed the drama of the gown while maintaining a sense of ease. Cyrus wore her long bronde hair down in a voluminous blowout with a deep side part, framing her face with old-Hollywood confidence. Smoky eyes, fluttering lashes, defined brows, luminous skin, bronzed cheeks, and a glossy peach lip completed the transformation—glamorous, but never overworked.
As both a presenter and nominee, Cyrus appeared entirely at home in this moment, continuing a fashion evolution she has carefully curated alongside longtime stylist Bradley Kenneth. This era of her style feels assured and intentional, marked by sharp silhouettes, confident minimalism, and an embrace of fashion as storytelling rather than spectacle.
Just weeks earlier, Cyrus turned heads at the Avatar: Fire and Ash Los Angeles premiere in a look from Demna’s debut Gucci collection, La Famiglia, further signaling her alignment with fashion’s most directional voices. Her Golden Globe nomination marks her third nod in the Best Original Song category, cementing her reputation not just as a performer, but as a songwriter with cinematic resonance. She faces competition from tracks featured in KPop Demon Hunters, Sinners, Wicked: For Good, and Train Dreams—but on the carpet, the night already belonged to her.
At the Golden Globes, Miley Cyrus didn’t just wear Saint Laurent. She embodied it—cool, commanding, and entirely in control.
