Miley Cyrus explains why she won't get rid of dress she wore on first date with ex-husband Liam Hemsworth
Cyrus and Hemsworth had an on-and-off relationship spanning a decade
Miley Cyrus has opened up about her decision to hold on to the dress she wore the first time she went on her date with her future - and later ex - husband, Liam Hemsworth.
The pop star, who has most recently been dating drummer Maxx Morando, spoke about some of the nostalgia connected to certain outfits in a new interview with Vogue to promote her collaboration with Maybelline.
During the conversation, Cyrus spoke about organizing the various outfits, awards and other bits and pieces she's collected over the years and creating a 'legacy rack' of clothing, which is 'a couple of looks from every era that [she] would want to be remembered'.
She explained: "My eras, they’re not a costume, they’re actually like a metamorphosis or a true evolution for me personally."

Among these eras is Cyrus' relationship with Hemsworth, whom she met in 2009 while filming the movie The Last Song.
The pair began dating, and after a bit of on-again, off-again drama, they got engaged in 2012 before calling it off the following year.
Fast forward to 2016, and the couple were engaged again before marrying in 2018. In August 2019, Hemsworth filed for divorce.
It's a lot to go through in a decade, but Cyrus made clear she's not looking to wipe the experiences from her mind.
Discussing her decision to hold on to some of the memories, she explained: “I literally have a dress that I had on when I met my ex-husband, and then I have my dress that I wore on our first date along with letters and things that I really, I want to savor these kind of beautiful moments of my life, but because these intimate moments have also been public moments, it’s a little bit tough to decide what piece I want to share and what I would ever allow to be seen.”
Cyrus continued: "These things that are analog, they really are forever, and that’s something that I’ve also loved about working with Maybelline. It’s a household name. It’s so iconic and it is embedded into all these eras that I love and I really honor.”
Following her split from Hemsworth, the Hannah Montana star and Morando began dating in 2021 after meeting on a blind date.
Morando is six years younger than Cyrus, but the singer told Harper's Bazaar in 2024 that the pair are 'very similar'.
"We just don’t take life too seriously," she said at the time.
