Autumn/Winter 2012-13 MIU MIU

MIU MIU took the Edwardian silhouette introduced by Marc Jacobs at Louis Vuitton this morning - with frock coat shapes over cropped tailored trousers - and swirled in Seventies colour and print, all piled up over glam rock platforms in silver and mahogany and topped with glittering rainbow eye embellishments and hair that was slicked back and curled into looped sideburns - all accompanied by Björk being Violently Happy. It could really only happen at Miu Miu.

Mannish suits in pale blue, green, mustard or plum came over ruffle-fronted shirts featuring fine mosaic prints that later emerged to take over the suits, in prints of pink and blue, raspberry and turquoise, orange and brown, pink and green or purple and tan - and then in blocks of turquoise and black. A modern psychedelica we can't wait to get our hands on.

Cape-shouldered tailored jackets were teamed with mismatching A-line mini skirts before brown suede coats with pointed collars called to mind the coats we berated our fathers for still owning when we were teenagers.

There were few dresses to speak of, but those that did appear were mini tunics embellished with mirrors in front and tailored in suede behind: young, sassy and brilliant for a place in the limelight.
