If you're looking for a hidden meaning behind all the funky fur and glamorous jewels on the Fall 2017 [1] Miu Miu runway, there probably isn't any. That's how Miuccia Prada approaches her line "for the girl at heart." She gives the fashion crowd what it needs to play dress-up, depending on her mood. Miuccia set the tone with a hairy purple invite and a furry runway in the same color, but as soon as the show began, we were introduced to the whole rainbow.
Models walked to tunes by '80s hip-hop band De La Soul, pairing their furry pink hats with matching furry moon boots and the new must-have kicks: a boot that stops just below the knee decorated with silver hardware, grommets, and strips of snakeskin. Street style star Anna Dello Russo might even try the fuzzy, elbow-length gloves — they're even more eye-catching than a foam hand at a baseball game.
Miuccia's bright coordinates printed with old-school telephones and bushy-tailed cats were no more quiet, but if they're too much for you, try an embroidered sweater with a quirky little sparkle patch. While there were plenty of crystal brooches on satin mules, the belts of coats, and clutches, Miu Miu diamonds are not so sophisticated — they're merely a wink to all the women who walk with a pep in their step.
Finally, Miuccia did not forget she's got a red carpet to dress. Sparkling pink midis swathed in paillettes or shifts with sprawling feather patches were perfect for Elle Fanning, Maisie Williams, or Stranger Things breakout star Natalia Dyer [2]. Us? We'll take the groovy fit-and-flares branded with the Miu Miu name. After a season where it became popular to wear your heart on your sleeve, and a runway show that put a smile on our face, we really couldn't ask for more.
