Miu Miu Goes French

vanessa paradis.jpgOn the one hand, Vanessa Paradis for Miu Miu makes as much sense as Johnny Depp for Captain Jack Sparrow - quirky, elegant and sexy in an offbeat way.


But on the other hand, while Vanessa might not have an official contract to wear Chanel every time she steps out of her house, we can’t really imagine her in anything else.

The French actress and singer wears decidedly pretty dresses with red lips, making this Miu Miu collection in particular a strange choice - we’re having a hard time picturing her in the monogrammed athletic outfits or retro print shifts.

No doubt Miuccia, Mert, and Marcus will let her keep the lipstick, but how will they make the collection suitable for someone who’s known for her very romantic style?

Not to mention someone who said just last month, “I hardly think about fashion at all.”

I see exactly what you are saying. I think she'd be perfect for the new lace getups at Prada, but I am not sure if I see her at Miu Miu. It will probably be great, but I am a bit skeptical.

She's a somewhat odd choice for that line, but they always choose celebs of the moment. We'll just have to see if it works, it could go either way I think.

Vanessa is gorgeous!! And if you look her style isn't just all red lipstick, its actually very eclectic and quirky. She does a little bit of everything
