She still has everyone worked up over her raunchy “We Can’t Stop” music video, but Miley Cyrus can’t help but cause controversy yet again with this pic she tweeted of her wearing the Pretty Woman dress:

We here on Your Next Dress honestly don’t see what the big deal is. Yes, Julia Roberts’ character is a prostitute in Pretty Woman, but that’s one of the last things you’ll remember about the movie. And pretty much everyone knows who Miley Cyrus is — who’s going to think she’s a hooker?

Miley also wore the dress to go out partying at a club, which is the most appropriate event and place for it. Julia Roberts, on the other hand, wore it as part of her wardrobe in the movie. You can see a bit of the dress and a whole lot of Julia Roberts’ tiny waist in this PR photo:

So, who do you think wore it better, Miley Cyrus or the original, Julia Roberts?

The controversial dress is this Tripp NYC dress called what else but “Pretty Woman”:
