You're probably aware that, technically, Miranda's accent isn't her regular accent. Though it SHOULD be.
What is then?
Miranda's accent is more of a refined North Sydney accent (I lived in Sydney for a year as a teenager). It's the high class area of Sydney, and no doubt Mr. Lawson made his creation (because she was a daughter to him in name only) take vocal lessons to speak like a lady, but Miranda also has a hint of Yvonne's west Sydney accent (where she is from) that shines through, and can be explained as Miranda denying her father in another aspect. Yvonne's west Sydney accent is also a Melbourne accent as well. I know it sounds odd, but even the Australians have discernable accents. The Hollywood Australian accent you hear is more of a redneck accent to the Aussies. As far as say in comparison of Yvonne's accent goes, hers is more like a London accent when compared with say a Manchester or Birmingham accent. American wise, it's kind of difficult to make a comparison there. Yvonne's normal accent is at most like what a Midwestern accent (Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan) compared to say a Harvard or Yale accent.
In reference to Hot_Hearts post, it's a lot like that. Just like a Midwestern accent is seen as a 'neutral' American accent.
