MIU MIU IN ROME

Christmas Shopping is often linked to nice store's windows. Another example after Ferragamo's is Miu Miu. The Holidays window have been completely redesigned with a new interpretation of "Pop" based on a range of constrasting colours for each window room. The result is an intriguing sequence of abstract, deconstructed rooms, in which the principal players, the brand's collections and Biker Bags, align perfectly, to interpret and reinforce the concept. In Rome Miu Miu is in via del Babuino, 90. Have a look.
