A playful look on girlhood: Miu Miu SS 2020 show
A playful look on girlhood: this show presents the discovery of the self through customisation and unique silhouettes.
⠀
For her Miu Miu SS 2020 collection, Miuccia Prada once again takes a look at the past — by exploring 1940s and 1950s fashion through a modern prism. Drawing inspiration from Teddy Boys and Teddy Girls, Prada reimagines suiting of the time through exaggerated silhouettes and vibrant colours.
⠀
What’s most interesting is the notion of customisation, which infuses the looks with peculiar details. From random buttons sewn onto coats and blazers to chaotic ruffles unevenly attached to skirts — Prada remembers a time when clothing was scarce, therefore one took any means to customise it.
⠀
The show pairs this with signature “Miu Miu” details, such as grey cardigans, simple ballet flats, and pleated leather accessories. A delightful combination of what we already know and love by Miu Miu, combined with a nostalgic look at a bygone era.
