Miley Skipped This Year's Met Gala

by Toria Sheffield

If the Met Gala can be counted on for anything, it's fearless and unexpected fashion choices. And Miley Cyrus's 2016 Met Gala look was bound to surpass expectation... except for the fact that she opted not to attend this year.

The annual Met Gala is known as a celeb-studded event that takes its themed fashion very seriously, serving as a night for designers to get incredibly creative and create one-of-a-kind, wearable works of art. It's one of the year's most anticipated events in fashion, and it's why I was so excited to see what a style risk-taker like Miley had in store.

Last year, Miley seemed to forgo the "China: Through The Looking Glass" theme entirely, showing up in a skintight studded Alexander Wang cut out dress. While definitely bold, the choice landed her on several major Worst Dressed Lists, with many saying her choice was way more suited to 2013's "Punk: Chaos to Couture." Thankfully, "best and worst dressed" are completely relative terms — especially since all that really matters is that Miley loved the look and totally rocked it.

Where exactly Miley was instead of at this year's event remains a mystery.

However, if her recent Yoga poses on Twitter offer any hints, maybe she was getting in some healthy zen time.
