Miley Cyrus Channels 80s Power Suits in Latest Fashion Statement
Miley Cyrus has once again proven herself to be a fashion trailblazer, donning a bold, all-leather outfit straight from Yves Saint Laurent’s AW25 runway. The 32-year-old singer was spotted in Paris, reportedly filming a L’Oreal advert, and her latest look is a far cry from the Spring-like weather currently being enjoyed in the French capital.
According to an article in Elle, Cyrus opted for a merlot red leather jacket with XXL shoulders, a style that pays homage to the power suiting of the 1980s with its drop waist, pencil skirt, and elbow-length gloves. As Elle notes, “The silhouette pays homage to the power suiting of the 1980s with its drop waist, pencil skirt and elbow length gloves.” The jacket was paired with sheer tights, patent stilettos, and sunglasses, completing the sleek, high-fashion look.
As reported by Elle, the leather jacket and pencil skirt combination is a versatile one, and can easily be dressed down for a more casual occasion. As the article states, “We’re going to save the full jacket and pencil skirt combination for a big pitch we want to go well, and swap out the skirt for some straight leg jeans come the weekend.” This sentiment is echoed by fashion experts, who suggest that leather jackets are a great investment piece for any wardrobe.
In fact, both Alexa Chung and Daisy Edgar-Jones have recently agreed that Spring is the perfect leather jacket season. As Elle reports, “Though the UK will enjoy something of a mini heatwave in most places this week, a leather jacket isn’t a bad call when things return to normal the week after.” With this in mind, we’ve rounded up some of the best leather jackets on the market, from oversized and embossed to sleek and sophisticated.
Elle Collective, a community of fashion, beauty, and culture lovers, has noted that leather jackets are a great way to add a touch of edge to any outfit.

As Daisy Murray, Digital Fashion Editor at Elle UK, notes, “Leather jackets are a great investment piece for any wardrobe. They can add a touch of edge to any outfit and are perfect for dressing up or down.” With this in mind, it’s no wonder that Miley Cyrus’s latest fashion statement has caused such a stir. Whether you’re a fan of bold, high-fashion statements or more understated looks, there’s no denying the impact of a well-styled leather jacket.
