Miu Miu, the hipper and younger sister of Prada, may have just snagged Xenu-loving Katie Holmes and a bevy of rising top models to front its spring '09 ad campaign but that doesn't mean that they're not struggling as the stock markets continue to go awry each week.Continue reading The Recession is Real: Miu Miu Shuts Down Madison Avenue Boutique

Christina Aguilera isn't on the scene all that much these days. But when she is, she certainly still knows how to turn it on. Case in point, her Julian MacDonald dress and insane Miu Miu heels at the opening party of the Trump International Hotel and Tower in Dubai. Filed under: Style in the News
Last month, Vogue announced it would be teaming up with IMG models to present an online TV series that followed three new models -- Cato Van Ee, Madeline Kragh, and Austria Alcantara -- as they made their way to New York for fashion week, documenting all of the trials and tribulations that come with trying to make yourself stand out in a very competitive industry.
The series debuted on August 19 and all of the episodes thus far have showed the models saying good-bye to their loved ones in order to beging that long and arduous journey known as Fashion Week. Cato, the Holland beauty who walked Miu Miu and Prada exclusively last season, has parents that are, rightfully so, worried about what the modeling industry has in store for their daughter.
Her mother, in fact, would prefer if she didn't become famous because "she doesn't know too many people who are famous that are happy." In this clip, watch as her buddies throw her a farewell party and her parents lament on the risks of becoming a model.

Last week, Sarah reported that Lindsay Lohan would be the new face of Miu Miu. Most of us greeted the news with a dose of skepticism -- Lindsay wearing Miu Miu? You must be kidding!Filed under: Handbags, Accessories, Style in the News, Celebrities with Style
Shunned first by projects, then by Louis Vuitton, it looks like Miss Lohan has finally weaseled her way into someone's favor. The teen actress (is she really a teen anymore?) has been chosen to be the face of Miu Miu's ad campaign for Spring 2007. What on earth could Miu Miu have been thinking? Who knows, maybe Lindsay is giving them a bargain.

What's big, unbalanced and bulky all over?
But am I the only one who is going to call a spade a spade in this situation? Filed under: Accessories, Shoes
I'm not an obsessed shoe junkie most of the time but the new baroque wedges from Miu Miu have been haunting my dreams ever since they started popping up in all the fashion magazines. Something about these shoes with their distressed, raised pattern wood wedges that look like they were pulled straight off a building just does it for me. They look well-nigh impossible to wear and aren't really that flattering to the foot so perhaps it's just the allure of walking on architecture that has me so ensnared. At $645, these wedges with their slim patent straps probably won't be gracing my house anytime soon but a girl can dream.
