The Reinvention of the Miu Miu MIUlady Bag
For Fall/Winter 2016 a much-loved and timeless Miu Miu design, first introduced for Spring/Summer 2015, has been reinvented and re-named the MIUlady bag.
Crafted in fine madras leather and soft calfskin the MIUlady bag comes in a playfully iconoclastic palette of pop-bright shades.
Its classic flap closure is decorated with an oversized brass belt buckle – part Baroque, part Western styling – and hand-embellished with gemstones in equally vibrant hues.
At once radical in its conservatism and an irreverent reinterpretation of the aesthetics of times past, the MIUlady bag is nothing if not eclectic, embodying the independent spirit of an audacious young lady, only too happy to wear apparently jarring colour and texture juxtapositions, not to mention her jewellery on her purse.
She is wild at heart, a sartorially discerning, free spirit who revels in the luxury of not caring, joyfully mixing vintage finds with more contemporary pieces sourced from all four corners of the globe.
Now, as always, as much attention is paid to style as to function, to history as to modernity. The respect for traditional craftsmanship and sourcing of precious materials, both of which are integral to Miu Miu’s handwriting, are in evidence as so too is an uplifting sense of unbridled femininity that is, equally, fundamental to the brand.
