An exploration of the expressive power of the body in clothing, Miu Miu celebrates QiXi 2023 with a collection and accompanying campaign inspired by movement and physicality, gesture and strength. Photographed by Lengua, the stars of this story are as self-assured, confident and composed as their wardrobes.

Timelessly elegant motifs - knife pleats, pencil skirts and polka dots – are contrasted with hallmarks of sportswear and an active lifestyle – baseball caps, pedal pushers, tennis dresses and washed denims. Delicate silks are juxtaposed with signature knits: ribbed socks and sweaters in schoolboy grey.

Miu Miu’s play on cut and proportion continues with micro-mini skirts in leather with biker-style belts. Jeans are worn ultra-low on the hips with cropped jackets, elongating the torso. Glasses, first seen on the Miu Miu’s Autumn/Winter 2023 runway in Paris, make an exclusive appearance, and glossy bijoux and hair accessories in shine.
