Miu Miu S/S 2009 Paris

This spring season, Miuccha was questioning youth and innocence in a world that's so opposite. That explains the key of the collection, which seems to be a juxtaposition of the childlike motifs and the 'adult scenes' prints that I think were done in such a brilliant way, as it was used pretty tastefully, not in Jeremy Scott kind of way.
The silhouettes were quite a bit departure from the cool, urbane, sharply turned-out girls of last season with their to-die-for-heirloom quality coat dresses. This time, there are mainly tight-tailored pieces, and also some bell-sleeved vintage dresses which were glammed up with sequins, beads and pastiche, and very pretty narrow-lined jumpsuits.

Overall I think it's a quirky and fun collection! It's definitely not for everyone, but I personally love this. There are times when I actually prefer Miu Miu's collection over her big sister Prada, and this season is exactly just one of those. For once they did make playing grown-up looks like a lot of fun!
