Miu Miu Italy is taking by Gucci Jockey assault with the opening of its latest store in Porto Cervo. The newest Gucci Messenger boutique in the northern coastal city of Sardinia follows CHANEL recent openings shop in Bologna and Forte dei Marmi.
No opening of the store would be complete JIMMY CHOO without some unique fashion items, and Miu Miu gives us a double dose here.
The first is a head-turning pair of shoes that looks like the love child of some work boots and casual clogs. It is an unusual mix, and probably should not work, but under the skillful hands of Miuccia Prada, somehow it does.
I’m less convinced by the Miu Miu Porto Cervo handbag, with its bunched tucking and frayed fringe. I suppose the fashion house was shooting for summer casual here, but it just looks a bit slovenly to me.
The limited edition shoes and handbags are available exclusively at the new Miu Miu Porto Cervo store.
