Miu Miu’s SS/20 collection creates this sense of freedom, an outlet for you to express yourself throughout. Most vividly it creates a dialogue, a conversation between the wearer and her clothes, creates a relationship, a bond. Perhaps a conversation with your inner child or one’s creative mind.
Through the styling spontaneity and purposefulness can be seen also the intertwining the unexpected.
The collection pushes the extremities of simple and exaggerated, minimal and maximal. Allows you to indulge your inner minimalist and maximalist. Allowing one to play with this childlike nostalgia in the everyday ‘adult wear’; With suiting and Skirt sets paired with inserts of playfulness and creativity.
The clothing is seen as a canvas of art in both the literal and metaphorical sense. The concept of an artist freely and creatively playing with the canvas to create a piece of art so unique. One can see this image of seemingly incompletion and the creative process as a theme with use of broken frills, hand drawn floral designs in an abstract tone; skirts and dresses with literal splashes of ‘paint’, with mismatched buttons seen on oversized blazers in a full suited look; taking away the traditional structure associated with a suit.
Further the clothing is draped and oversized rather than structurally fitted, with inserts of ties and bursts of colour frills feathered across the garments unexpectedly; furthering this ever-present spontaneity.
The theme was also presented in the show space location; held in the Palais d’Iena in Paris, the precision and structure of the salle hypostyle architecture is altered with an off centred installation drawing in modernisation and abstract imagery.
A section of the room is left open plan juxtapositioned with the other half being a structural ‘set’ with wooden flooring as a counterpart to the concrete original, further a new wooden stair piece replaces the original grand staircase exaggerating this sense of abstract and creativity in the structural assembly.
The wood used in the show was repurposed after the show; given to an association which recovers waste from fashion shows to make them useable for students and professionals in the cultural sector.
