The collection is shown on a cast of all genders, a challenge to convention and an embracing of our new reality. And in a collaboration with the artist Shuang Li, the hypostyle of the Palais d’Iena is fashioned by AMO into an unknown facet of reality. “Every message is a translation, but nothing has ever been translated.” So reads the top of the notes left on every seat at the Miu Miu Spring/Summer 2023 show.

Founded by Miuccia Prada in 1992, MIU MIU released its S/S 2022 collection in Palais d'Iéna. Twisted white runway separated the space and exposed most part of the original architecture. Guests were sitting in ergonomic work chairs and the show treated us to a back-to-work wardrobe for the post-pandemic age. Blue shirt, sweater, khaki trousers and black belt completed the first look of this collection and brought the office atmosphere to the show. These signature office items, such as shirt, polo shirt, jacket, suit, suit dress and pencil skirt, were shown one after another. Based on the basic definition, Miuccia Prada was exploring the relationship between clothing and body. Familiar items lifted the waistline of upper body and lowered the waistline of bottoms to reveal a different body proportion and expose the midriff. Raw-edged cut hemline, white undershirt and faded sweater were casual and rebellious. Besides, the pointed head of loafers injected sharpness into the general looks.
