A centerpiece to the brand’s handwriting, Miu Miu elaborates on the values of their iconic matelassé leather collection.

Captured in all its glory, an intimate portraiture captured by Guen Fiore and a series of still-life images by Deo Suveera elaborates on the foundations of Miu Miu’s iconic matelassé leather collection. With an evocative look at the collection’s 2006 debut for the house’s Fall/Winter 2006 season, the timeless beauty has been reimagined, reinvented, and imbued with possibility. Creating a juxtaposition among elements of individuality and imagination, the matelassé leather collection merges a sense of protection with the power of innovation, unveiling the highest dynamics of heritage craftsmanship learned through none other than the renowned Miuccia Prada.

Moonlighting as a mirror for unconventional visions, Miu Miu, adapts to the latest forms of size and design, with the Matelassé collection appearing in a revitalized neutral color palette. Central to the brand’s identity, the collection has become a coveted inhabitant in Miu Miu handwriting. By fusing sophisticated artistry and artisanal technique with experimentation, the leather’s highly distinctive, rich texture is the ultimate marriage between unconventional beauty and lenses of practicality.

Crafted through a paradoxically rigorous process that entails pairing panels of elegant Nappa leather with wadding and elastic cloth to achieve a stretch, Matalasse leather is delicate in its finish and intricately unique. Such malleability effortlessly adapts to any content, just as it does to the form of the person carrying it. Nestling close to the body, a plump surface is as comfortable as it is aesthetically appealing.
