I passed by Villa Moda the other day to check out the new Miu Miu Spring/Summer runway collection. At first glance, some of the items looked average, but give it a thorough artistic glance (meaning: try them on) and you will realize how this collection offered an avant-garde pieces of ballerina and French maid costumes with a modern chic twist. I have added here photos of all the items available now at Miu Miu Kuwait.
Mind you, most of the items were ultra short, but you can always improvise if you're not a fan of showing off your stems. Try pairing jackets (like my fave black ruffled jackets with white collar shown in the first pic) with slim leg pants. Some of the dresses and skirts can be altered to look 3-4 inches longer. Whatever item you plan to purchase, do not wear it with flats. Choose platform shoes to balance the volume of the pieces. By the way, don't expect to see the accessories runway collection yet. The only thing available from the runway collection were tiny mobile charms (!).
Miu Miu boutique is located at Villa Moda Shuwaikh Free Trade Zone. For inquiries, please call (+965) 482-7004.

C'est hilarious!
There's no vulgarity in revealing all - stems included, if you have a near perfect body stat to flaunt. Quite often, though, all we see is women showing off their stems the size of banyan tree trunks and that can be a bit off putting to us, men as I am sure it must be to a lot of fashionista femme fatales out there.
Miu Miu summer collection is indeed very catty this time round! It's also very youthful and great attention to detail has been paid to make it most user friendly for the hot Kuwaiti summers.
Well.. it's not THAT "user-friendly" as it looks in the photos for our hot summer. The fabrics are meant to be for the evening... in an air conditioned place! :)
dee
Well for some pieces, Yes. But as I said, some can be altered to look longer so they'd look find with high heels.
btw, the collection ranges between KD 300 to approimately KD 900.
Many thanks
i know u posted about it long ago, and i just saw it in this color and i think i like... shrayech gabil la i make a bad decision? It costs taqreban 1300 pounds on net a porter
extends my thanks
This collection of Miu Miu does not go with jeans, in my opinion as least. It's too dressy for denim. And if you're referring to the 2nd picture, it would be nice to be worn with slim leg dressy pants or on their own if you're able to alter it's length. You can also wear it with opaque tights for windy nights.

I couldn't agree more.. :| but if you're on the petite side, try them on, but they won't look as short on you.

It all depends on your wardrobe and your style. If you're into rock chic look then I say go for it. For some reason, I don't think it will be re-produced for seasons to come and it might be a one-season-kind of bag if you're ok with that.

No I haven't been to it yet. I was planning to go to the opening but unfortunately got tied up with other things. Was the library open?
We totally empathise with you. Fortunately, today in Kuwait you can be more adventurous with what you wear than at any point in history or more than in any other country in the Persian Gulf region :)
Already we have happened upon several South Surra Saadias and Jabriya Jameelas in their Chloe chiffon abayas wearing Miu Miu micro-minis inside, as they jaywalked past us at busy traffic intersections.
depending on your personality this piece can be versatile, try with slim fitting blk pants with some sort of hem detailing (either a faux cuff, or topped off with a symmetrical line of three buttons on the side) if you want to be adventurous & oh soo naughty pair with see through light organza or chiffon pants (think Bill Blass circa 93). The return of black/white contrast is also into consideration, pair with white peddle pushers or borrow from the boys with a fabulous wide leg pant. You can absolutely carry off with denim; just make sure its super dark & flared- have fun
P>S:Whatever you do, kindly refrain from ruining with leggings, in fact; in case you own any please chop them to pieces.
