Miu Miu FW25 was Miuccia’s latest chapter in her manifesto on modern femininity

Miuccia Prada’s FW25 Miu Miu collection today in Paris was a meditation on the feminine, its essence distilled into form and function. Clothes become a conversation – about power, perception, and the way femininity is both shaped and shaping. Closing out the more than 70 shows scheduled for PFW this season, Miu Miu is easily one of the season’s hottest tickets. Here’s everything to know about what went down.

The location …

The show was held at the Palais d’Iéna. The hypostyle space, wrapped in yellow moiré, became a testament to transformation; raw yet refined, industrial yet intimate – a fitting backdrop for a collection that revels in contrast. The architecture of the venue, historically associated with function and permanence, was recontextualised through Miu Miu’s lens, allowing the garments to stand as objects of both artistry and everyday wear.

The guests …

As has become commonplace at a Miu Miu show, the runway encompassed a cast spanning generations and disciplines – Gigi Hadid, Raffey Cassidy, Towa Bird, Sarah Paulson, Lou Doillon and Laura Harrier – walked, each embodying Miuccia’s vision of the contemporary woman: autonomous, enigmatic, and impossible to define. Despite the fanfare on the runway, the frow was just as star-studded, with Mark Eydelshteyn, Emma Mackey, Emma Corrin, Sydney Sweeney, A$AP Rocky, Camille Rowe and more in attendance.

The clothes …

Silhouettes floated beyond the body, neither clinging nor conforming. Shapes curved, not just to follow the figure, but to suggest something greater – a reclamation of structure, a negotiation of space. Softness met subversion in the manipulation of fabrics; tailoring shifts, folds collapse, and bras emerged as both contour and commentary. The FW25 collection was a study of exposure and concealment that unfolded as satin bias skirts and pointelle knits referenced lingerie, drawing attention to the décolleté, to skin, to the body’s natural cadence.

Familiar symbols – brooches, stoles, bracelets – became declarations rather than embellishments. Fur capes enveloped heads, snakeskin bags were tucked under arms; emblems of femininity reiterated, reinforcing the interplay of fragility and force. Miu Miu’s SS25 knee-high socks made a return, still emerging from tan and chocolate leather loafers and laced-up sneakers in new colourways. A new addition to footwear were a series of knee-high leather boots with buckles, which hugged calves tightly in patent shades of camel and vinyl red.

Outerwear, of course, was another focal point – double-breaseted wool coats and checked transitional trenches leading the way for fur-trimmed leather jackets, fleeces and popped-collar trucker jackets.
