The New Miu Miu Line is Influenced by 1950s Styles and Motifs
Riley von Niessen — July 5, 2017 — Luxury
The new Miu Miu collection that was launched as a part of the brand's 2018 Resort series recently made its debut on the runway.
During the show, models walked in vivid ensembles that boasted eye-catching patterns that took viewers back in time, as many of them featured 1950s motifs. More specifically, the patterns referenced "auto repair shops and utilitarian Americana" during the time. The former was represented in a number of the pieces, with small black and white checkered components giving furry coats a subtle racer vibe. In addition, the new Miu Miu collection incorporated jumpsuits that executed the auto repair shop theme in a more obvious fashion, with branded patches and tool belt-inspired purses accompanying them on the runway.
