Miley Cyrus has purchased the iconic Bob Mackie dress she wore to the 2024 Grammy Awards.
The singer made a splash when she stepped out onstage in a silver sequin minidress with cutouts to perform her track Flowers at the prizegiving in February shortly after she had won her first Grammy for Best Pop Solo Performance.
While the dress was initially returned to Bob's archive, it was included in a sale at Julien's Auctions set to take place this week, and in a statement on Monday, Miley confirmed she had snapped up the special piece.
"This dress represents more than a performance - it's a celebration of the relationship between music, artistry and glamour," she said. "This performance was a pivotal moment in my life, and to have Bob Mackie's support in securing it means the world to me."
The beaded dress was originally made for the legendary costume designer's 2002 collection.
It carried an estimate of $6,000 to $8,000 (£4,700 - £6,200) in the catalogue for the Hollywood Legends: Unmistakably Mackie auction, which was set to begin on Wednesday.
Miley did not announce how much she paid for the dress, though proceeds will be donated to MusiCares, a nonprofit organisation that provides assistance to those working in the music industry.
And Bob couldn't be more thrilled that the Wrecking Ball hitmaker is the new owner.
"Miley's performance at the 2024 Grammy Awards marked an unforgettable moment in her career," the 84-year-old gushed. "As the designer of this dress, I couldn't imagine it on anyone else. That girl was born to perform!"
