Miley Cyrus in Versus Versace at the 2013 American Music Awards

This chickie is a lot smarter than people give her credit for.

Miley Cyrus attends the 2013 American Music Awards held at Nokia Theatre L.A. Live in Los Angeles, California in a Versus Versace suit paired with Saint Laurent black pumps and Lorraine Schwartz jewelry.

Knowing that the AMAs were going to be a circus tent of attention-seeking clowns, she opted for the cleanest, simplest look she could have chosen while still having some sort of edge to it. Now granted, we don’t credit her entirely with all her image management and style management decisions, but she’s listening to some smart people, surely. After all, we’re all talking about Miley in a way we never did prior to this year.

Anyway, we like this. The safety pins really make it. Our only real issue is with the fit of the jacket, which seems a little off.
