This Lunar New Year Capsule Collection Might Be Our Favorite One Yet

There’s something magical about the start of a New Year—that not-quite-tangible yet somehow still distinct feeling that anything is possible. In many Asian cultures, this rebirth and celebration of new beginnings coincide with the Chinese New Year, and this year, Miu Miu captures that unique feeling with a new capsule collection arriving ahead of the new Lunar Year.

To coincide with the capsule’s launch, a short film called The Encounter, created to celebrate the Year of the Snake, makes its debut. Starring House ambassadors Liu Haocun and Zhao Jinmai, the story captures a magical moment, a rare encounter, between the duo, who find themselves alone in a bustling Cantonese tea shop.

Miu Miu Icons Refreshed for the Season

The Lunar New Year selection includes a bit of everything. From fan-favorite bags like the Arcadie and the Wander, in bold red Matelassé (to bring joy and good fortune this year) to the new kids on the block like the Penny Bag and the Joie Bag are offered in exclusive iterations. In true Miu Miu form, it’s the accompanying tricks and charms that delight us, blending Miu Miu’s distinct DNA with the tradition of the season—and we are obsessed!

There’s a reason why Miu Miu continues to be the must-have brand, and this capsule collection of ready-to-wear proves it. From layered knits to embellished show-stopping statement pieces, the Miu Miu uniform gets a makeover, capturing the magic of the new year, all in celebration of the Year of the Snake.

Pops of red are present throughout the collection, infusing age-old tradition with a contemporary twist on bags, accessories, and clothing. Select stores further the idea of tradition, offering personalized Chinese knot tricks, which pair perfectly with Miu Miu’s crocheted serpent charm.
