Miu Miu Mini Archival Skirt
Miu Miu Resort 2012 Soft Denim A-Line Skirt
From Miu Miu’s Resort 2012 collection, this soft denim A-line mini skirt is a playful yet refined piece, blending classic casual style with luxurious details. The skirt is crafted from premium denim and is accented by striking Italian red leather panel at the front waistband and a hidden middle pleat. Miu Miu’s signature padded band at the back lends the skirt a unique and structured silhouette. Falling to mid-thigh in length, this design is both youthful and sophisticated, embodying Miuccia Prada’s keen ability to juxtapose timeless elegance with a youthful edge.
In his review for Vogue, Tim Blanks captures the essence of the collection, noting Miu Miu’s characteristic play on eccentricity and irony. The 21 looks of the Resort collection revisit the flamboyant excesses of the late 1980s, but with a distinctively girlish rock 'n' roll twist. Blanks described the collection as subverting the haute bourgeois style of icons like Lacroix, imbuing the pieces with a rebellious yet polished spirit. Playful elements remained true to Miu Miu’s ethos of whimsy and experimentation while still echoing the more mature sensibilities of its sister brand, Prada.
