Miu Miu Fall 2009 Collection, Milan, Italy (March 12, 2009). Presented in Standard Definition.
From the intimate salon setting with models walking within arms length of the audience and a seductive soundtrack featuring bits and pieces of dialogue from, “Madame Claude” and “Histoire d’ O,” seduction was the theme. Miuccia Prada’s Fall 2009 Miu Miu collection permeated the room with an overt feminine sexuality that was boldly suggestive, yet supremely elegant. Chic coat dresses were transformed into short, sultry often sleeveless or revealing backless dresses that revealed shimmering bare skin. Miuccia’s ‘new suit’ as she called it, was newly reduced and paired down to a blended fox fur and wool stole, now replacing the jacket over a matching A-line skirt.
Elegant fur pieces adorned almost every look including handbags and shoes adding to the decadent air of sensuality. A red tweed sleeveless coat dress with matching fur stole vamped up the mainly neutral color palette of nudes, tans, golds, peach and grey. Slender dresses and long pencil skirts in transparent oriental red or tiger patterned silks, some with plunging necklines suggested a more demure, but deliberate sex appeal compared to the provocative coats that came before them. Exposed triangle bras were visible through sheer organza blouses further highlighting the importance, that what goes underneath is equally as important as the clothes and coats themselves.
