Miu Miu Spring Summer 2012

Miu Miu could send crop tops, $4,000 ripped jeans, and exposed nipples down the catwalk and I will still love this show. Why? Because it is the LAST one. Thank god!

As usual, I had mixed feelings about Miu Miu. The smocking details and the full skirt silhouettes were very appealing, while the patchwork and off the shoulder capes looked rubbish. And the shoes, wow. They were incredibly tacky. I can imagine a die hard fashion victim, who will wear anything designer, even if it is ugly, sporting some of this stuff.

I love…

this skirt. This is a great silhouette, simple, pretty, and will look good on a real person.

I loathe…

tacky patchwork. And boots that will only look god on a REAL cowgirl.

an off the shoulder coat. It looks cool, but realistically, this will fall off and be quite useless.

an off the shoulder cape. Even worse than the above.

    I see very little originality here. It lacks the wow factor for me… and you don’t even have the shoes to talk about… maybe they run dry of originality with the glitter ones

    it’s unfortunate the curtain pieces, patchwork print, and shoes were so ugly because it’s their last collection? and for the most part i love(d) miumiu :( i liked the 90′s prada-esque looks though. it’s too bad miuccia took ugly and tacky too far, it just ended up being fugly

    The cape might actually be wearable if you can cinch it up tighter, and the colour is great. Otherwise? Yeah, a little fug but like you said, that first black skirt is an awesome shape!
