Okay, I’m just going to come right out and say it. Miu Miu is a line of questionable taste. It’s not always disappointing, but it’s disappointing often enough to be noticeable. Fortunately, Miu Miu has shown remarkable restraint with this Aviator design and the results are beautiful.
Unlike so many of Miu Miu’s designs, the Aviator is clean and restrained. It has a simple hobo shape with a little added structure to keep your belongs in place and your look minimal. The only thing I don’t really like about the design is the overly complicated dual handles. For one thing, they’re a little thick, and for another, the shape is just a little too heavy for the bag.
What really makes this bag for me is the subtle contrast between the colors. The rich navy is pretty chic all its own, but the combination with the chocolatey brown takes it to another level. The material on the bag is brushed and matte, almost like nubuck, and the texture really works up against the semi-gloss of the handle and straps.
This is one of the best bags Miu Miu has put out in a long time. Unfortunately, the $1,495 is pretty daunting, even for a really great design.
