A cheery diversion from the usual minimalist choices that celebrities have opted for (yes this is a reminder for Row’s elegant Half Moon bag), do the IT-girls making room in their wardrobes for the croissant shaped Miu Miu’s sprightly Wander bag signify that the celebs are finally in their playful era now?
Having made its debut for the autumn/winter 2022 collection, Miu Miu had launched their latest baby with “rediscovery and re-exploration of the identity of the brand, through a new perspective” being the brand’s motto; and Wander does deliver just that by elevating the classic Italian House’s staple “Matelessé” to new heights. Every single strip of quilted fabric is distinctive, adding to the effect’s one-of-a-kind combination of rich texture and superb craftsmanship.
Adding onto Miu-Miu’s past of being the perfect arm candy for ‘rebellious girls’, the Wander definitely passes the vibe check. It is the perfect statement piece one needs to elevate their outfits and our favourite style icons have seemed to have added the same to their fashion amendments.
The Wander, even with its similar shape and design manages to satiate almost every necessary requirement with their diverse colours and options for both re-nylon and leather. Colours like Astral Blue, Black, Yellow, Bubblegum Pink, White and Baltic Blue adds just the right splash of self-expression and zesty charm to everybody’s lives and closets.
“To Wander” means just that: to wander, to investigate, to be inquisitive, and to find out, and the style of this purse is undeniably in-sync with that. For better or worse, we are once again living in the Y2K aesthetic, and the golden logo up front adds onto it like icing.
Miu Miu seems to be hitting it out of the park with catering to their ideal wearer; sassy, convivial and seductive women who know how to preserve their bon-ton taste in a glitzy manner. With the Gen-z approved Sydney Sweeney being the bag’s face, this Miuccia Prada handbag is a fresh detour from the usual codes of Miu Miu. According to the fashion House themselves, the Wander’s rounded silhouette celebrates the ubiquitous femininity, the pillowy padded interiors begs for caress, while the sturdy handle, punched into the bag’s structure, combines functionality while exuding sophistication and practicality.
A number of celebrities have succumbed to the Wander’s allure, including Gigi Hadid, Hailey Bieber, and Jaime Xie, in addition to Emily Ratajkowski, who co-starred with Sweeney, Demi Singleton, Emma Corrin, and Amber Later in Miu Miu’s fall/winter 2022 advertising campaign. At the Venice Film Festival, the Wander has been seen accompanying several guests, including Natasha Lyonne, Rachel Brosnahan, Katherine Waterston, and the upcoming star Yasmin Finney.
The liberty to roam will be yours to enjoy, with this fun new addition.
