If Taylor Swift's latest era is marked by cabaret-inspired glitz, Miley Cyrus's is leather jackets and little black dresses. The pop star has been leaning into the look since she first kicked off her Something Beautiful press tour last winter. She started off strong, with leather jackets from Saint Laurent and Alaïa.
Though different in coloring, the two shared one very important detail: barrel-style statement sleeves. As Cyrus would effectively prove, the 1980s-inspired design detail is the secret to making any garment look edgy. And it's a rule she applied just yesterday, while attending the Vogue World: Hollywood fashion show.
