The eclectic and playful sister of high fashion company Prada, Miu Miu breaks the rules and prides itself in its feminine yet unruly charm. The brand was created in 1993 by Miuccia Prada, and has since become a huge player in the fashion fields. The current face of Miu Miu is 15-year-old actress Haille Steinfeld, though past famous spokeswomen include Kirsten Dunst and Katie Holmes.

ALL LIES IN THE PAST

Miu Miu was launched in the same year that Prada unveiled its first menswear line. Its aim was to be a more affordable, fun and younger brand to its Italian sister and was named after Miuccia’s nickname. This is reflected in the classic cuts, mixed up with vivid colours, prints and details.

MIU MIU STYLE

Everything from satchel-inspired hobos, to ruthless envelope clutches have come out of Miu Miu’s handbag collections. Currently we love the bright pops of colour and classic gold clasps, and recommend the Matelasse clutches and purses for a vibrant and unusual pleated texture. They come in great hues like gold, oyster and sugar pink and add instant detail to a handbag or outfit.

PERFECT FOR

Women that love their handbags to be the centre of attention and the focus of their outfits. Although simple and timeless in style, these bags are bold and daring at times. If you’ve got a bit of confidence, they’re the perfect accessory.
