MIU MIU


Miuccia Prada’s brand
of kooky glamour for Miu
Miu is as distinctive as
it seems challenging to
wear. The truth is, every
look has statement
pieces galore that are
surprisingly wearable—
assuming you’re not
afraid to stand out.
This fall, happy hues
and decadent faux
furs ensure a dramatic
entrance (and exit!).
Oversized coats (with
oversized collars), flat
fur boots, lashings
of rhinestones and
crystals pulled together
Miu Miu signatures:
printed tunics and flared
trousers, knit sweaters,
pretty skirts and lingerie
slips—as well as
the wacky oversized
sunglasses that become
cult eyewear items
every season.

In a departure from her usual discreet,
monochromatic aesthetic, creative director
Nadège Vanhee-Cybulski took the plunge
into a retro-tinged collection with an autumnal
colour palette. Shades of caramel, teal,
taupe and burgundy lent a chic ’70s vibe to
pieces inspired by Hermès’ heritage, such as
high-waisted dresses that referenced leather
aprons, worn over ribbed turtlenecks for
a sportif look. Silk scarves were used as a
canvas for some psychedelic colour clashing,
and floaty dresses were stamped with a hand-
painted paisley motif design. The Hermès
tomboy strode out confidently in a patchwork
charcoal parka with teal fur trim, mannish
trousers and clompy platform boots, taking
the house synonymous with timeless, luxurious
chic in a youthful new direction.
