Amidst the tutu-esque shaped dresses, whimsical t-shirts with faces on them and harlequin diamond patterns, one thing has become clear: everybody wants to be Miu Miu.
Case in point: this diamond stamped clutch from Topshop. Or take a look at this chain purse, or even these dresses from their Fall collection. Still not convinced of the Miu Miu influence? Check out this Harlequin mask. Seeing diamonds yet?
It isn’t just Topshop either. Mango is also selling a harlequin diamond-stamped clutch in more muted colors, while Urban Outfitters has a slightly more gypsy version of the diamond print all over this dress on their site. Even Marc Jacobs has given into the diamond frenzy – stamping this Marc by Marc jacket with the blue and green pattern.
We loved the look on the Miu Miu Spring 08 runway and we’re still kind of into it at these retail stores, we just hope it doesn’t become as ubiquitously watered down as the YSL drips…
Because then it would just make us dizzy.
