It is perhaps the most infamous outfit worn by a woman in 2013.
So it’s little surprise that Miley Cyrus’ notorious VMA outfit has been immortalised by a comedy sketch thanks to Alan Carr’s forthcoming New Year special on Channel 4.
Strictly Come Dancing winner Abbey Clancy wears a full-length ‘Miley-suit’ as part of Tuesday’s episode, which recaps cultural highlights from the past year.

The episode’s stunt is part of a game called The Great British Twerk Off, which sees Alan dress as Robin Thicke in the Blurred Lines
video.
Alongside Abbey, his guests – including Keith Lemon and Ben Cohen – are then split into rival teams of two people, each dressing as
either Robin or Miley.
Each ‘Robin’ is
stood behind an oversized cut-out of Robin Thicke’s crotch, which features a
photo of a celebrity whose face is masked by ice cream. Each ‘Miley’
must remove the ice cream by twerking it off. The first
team to correctly guess the celeb’s face wins.
Appropriately, they were joined by the UK’s first-ever twerking solo champion, Mizz
Versatile, who comes on to the stage to give a twerking demonstration – not that Abbey needs any practice, of course.

The comedy quiz comes just days after she was crowned the winner of this year’s Strictly Come Dancing, beating Natalie Gumede, Susanna Reid and Sophie Ellis-Bextor.
More than six million people watched her win the Glitterball trophy after weeks of arduous training and liver performances.
But Miley’s notorious VMA dance was less successful – instead sparking global castigation.
Not only did she wear a skin-tight, nude bra set, but she also danced provocatively against Robin Thicke and used a foam finger as a phallic object.

The incident, which was watched by a global audience of more than 100 million, has since become a cultural reference point of 2013.
More recently, in an interview with the Today Show, Miley revealed
that she’ll continue her ‘sexual’ performances to at least 40 years of
age.
‘Probably around 40, I
heard that’s when people don’t have sex any more. So I guess maybe
around then,’ the star said.
