‘Quirky’ but Whip Smart in the Global Men’s Club

Miu Miu has always thrived as being a bit ‘quirky’, a trait embedded in its arty, independent, young women DNA.

The multicultural, spirited Miu Miu girl chooses the unexpected, sartorial twist, like wearing Church’s brogues and double monk strap shoes with her sheerish, color-explosion Miu Miu separates.

Posing against an oversized but comfy, Miu Miu-upholstered, gentleman’s club furniture sends a definitive hard/soft fashion message between the two Miu Miu and Church’s siblings. The collaboration is serious business between the two Prada-Group owned brands, further reinforced by studious horn-rimmed spectacles.

Miu Miu Is Not for Dilettantes

That’s a distinctive point about Miu Miu charm and self-identity. She may well be studying at the London School of Economics, not only Central Saint Martins. The Miu Miu girl is not a dilettante. Her glasses, brogues and gentleman’s club ‘heritage’ chair reinforce her brainiac status. She is daring and purposesful, even when appearing light-hearted or a bit silly. Do not underestimate this young woman.

Church’s Patronage Awarded in 1965

Equally important is Church’s DNA as a luxury shoemaker of rich innovation and exceptional English craftsmanship.

Established in Northampton in 1873, the brand’s expertise quickly earned recognition from its modest beginnings – from a small workshop in Northampton to global expansion. Its patronage was bestowed by HM Queen Elizabeth II in 1965.
