Miley Cyrus purchases iconic 2002 cutout Bob Mackie dress from 2024 Grammy Awards performance
At the 2024 Grammy Awards, Miley Cyrus made a fashion statement in a stunning Bob Mackie dress from the designer's 2002 runway collection. She purchased the dress, originally set for auction, just days before the event.
Miley Cyrus undoubtedly had no idea she was producing a legendary fashion moment for the ages when she did it in February 2024. At the 2024 Grammy Awards, the singer accepted the Best Solo Pop Performance title and sang her popular song Flowers. But what truly drove it home was what she wore on that historic night.
Miley Cyrus bought Bob Mackie's dress from the 2024 Grammy performance
Among her many clothing changes was a particularly stunning Bob Mackie gown from the designer's 2002 runway collection To Broadway with Love. Miley's memories from that night include flashes of her wearing a chiffon cutaway dress encrusted with rhinestones, sequins, and beads.
Miley appreciates a classic fashion moment when she sees one, which is most likely why she bought the outfit she wore to the 66th Grammy Awards.
Days before the Bob Mackie garment was scheduled to be auctioned by Julien's Auctions in Beverly Hills, the singer hastily added it to her cart, ensuring that it found a particular place in her archive.
The garment was listed for $6,000 to $8,000, and Miley paid an undisclosed amount for it. A part of the revenues will be donated to MusiCares, a non-profit organization that provides health, educational, and financial help to music industry professionals.
Cyrus spoke about Mackie in his documentary
In Bob Mackie's documentary Naked Illusion, Miley Cyrus spoke about dress, saying, "One of the best parts of wearing a Bob Mackie on stage is that sometimes the audience is just as excited to see a Bob Mackie in person as they are to see you. It really looked like I was giving it all I got; I really wasn't doing anything but minding my business and singing the damn song because Bob and his dress was really doing all the work."
