Editor’s note: We continue our tradition of expanding the Vogue Runway archive by digitizing collections originally shot on film. Here are a quartet of shows from Miu Miu, which had back-to-back hits in 2023 with the pantless look and neo-prep polo styles. This fall 1998 collection was originally presented in Milan in March 1998.
Miuccia Prada had the Space Age ’60s in sight for fall 1998, 40 years after the birth of NASA. Both her Prada and Miu Miu collections shared a palette of white, red, and black and featured geometric silhouettes. Opening the Miu Miu show was a white funnel-neck top and miniskirt, accessorized with white patent Mary Janes. Shapes—in the form of curved patch pockets on a leggy dress or four squares on a coat (indicating where inner Velcro closures were placed)—provided monochrome decoration. A few bubble hems and frills added volume, but the main message was aerodynamics.
