The Midollino Basket bag by Miu Miu is part of a very specific line within the brand's recent history: the one that reinterprets the handcrafted tradition from a contemporary, playful and deliberately feminine sensibility. Under the creative direction of Miuccia Prada, Miu Miu has cultivated an aesthetic that oscillates between the naive and the sophisticated, and this model is an eloquent example of that balance.
The term midollino refers to a plant fiber, similar to wicker, traditionally used in Italian basketry. By recovering this material, the bag establishes a direct link with historical craft techniques, especially those associated with utilitarian objects of everyday life.
