So, what’s a girl (or guy, hey, no judgement!) to do? Custom-made, baby! Think about it – you can get that high-fashion look without emptying your bank account. And the best part? You get to design it *exactly* how you want. Forget just picking from what’s available in stores. You are, like, the creative director now!
I saw this thing online about someone crocheting a Miu Miu inspired scarf, and honestly, that’s kinda genius. If you’re crafty, you can totally DIY it. Maybe use some super soft yarn, get a cool pattern, and boom! Instant Miu Miu vibes. Even if you are, like, completely hopeless with a crochet hook (ahem, *me*), you could find someone on Etsy or something to make one for you. It’ll probably be cheaper than buying the real deal, and you can make all sorts of changes to it.
Plus, think about the possibilities! You could do a blue and white printed twill scarf, all Tokyo Miu Miu inspired. Or maybe, like, a strapless scarf top thingy. I have no idea how you’d make it strapless, but you know, get creative! The RealReal has some good inspo pics, just sayin’.
Honestly, the official Miu Miu website is tempting, but £571 for a logo scarf? Come ON! I love a good logo, don’t get me wrong, but I’d rather spend that money on a weekend getaway (or, like, three really good bottles of wine, let’s be real).
And yeah, you might not get the actual Miu Miu label, but who cares? It’s about the STYLE, not just the name. And if you design a bomb-ass custom scarf, nobody’s gonna question it. They’ll just be wondering where you got it, and you can be all mysterious and say, “Oh, it’s a custom piece,” with a casual shrug. (Okay, maybe don’t actually lie, but you get the picture.)
