The Setting: Miu Miu’s Spring/Summer 2025 Show
The younger and edgier of the Prada two, Miu Miu, has been a favorite among trendsetters and industry insiders for many years. Within a minimalist, yet futuristic setting at the center of Paris, the Spring Summer 2025 collection of the brand faced boundaries driven by the exploration of contradictions, such as delicate fabrics combined with utilitarian accents, tailoring with traditional and charming details.
Top models, designers and A-list celebrities all knew to bring their sartorial A game to the event. The energy of the event demanded ensembles that resonated with Miu Miu’s ethos: Always a little unexpected, and playful, but sophisticated. Alix Earle made her mark in the perfect backdrop.
Alix Earle’s Rise in Fashion
Beauty and lifestyle influencer Alix Earle rose to fame on her candid personality and perfectly chic style. With each passing month her presence increased in the fashion world and as her following increased, so did her presence. Over the past few years, she has gone from wearing ready to wear pieces to front rowing at high profile shows like Chanel, Balenciaga and now Miu Miu.
Earle, who has recently changed pace stylistically, has moved away from classic Hollywood glamour in favour of more experimental fashion, stepping out in strange silhouettes and colour combinations. Her more than surprising choice for Miu Miu show proved she was willing to risk and is aligning with the fashion elite more than before.
Breaking Down the Look
A masterclass in unexpected elegance, Earle’s outfit for Miu Miu’s Spring/Summer 2025 show was. Let’s break it down piece by piece:
1. The Dress
A deconstructed slip dress in a muted sage green was at the heart of Earle’s ensemble. There was subtle shimmer and she was draping the dress, it was asymmetrical, there was sheer paneling, and when you moved what caught the light. The Miu Miu featuring an unconventional structure—high slit on one side and ruched bodice—is Miu Miu’s signature: it redefined femininity.
You might expect to see Earle’s sage green, which was an unexpected choice for him who likes to wear not only red and classic black. This muted tint gladed the dress with intricate detail, while keeping the mood understated.
2. The Accessories
Where Earle took Miu Miu’s playful spirit to its complete heights was accessories. Dropping oversized pearl drop earrings, the dress was paired with pretty charm — perhaps vintage glamour for the modernity of the dress. A futuristic edge was provided with a small metallic silver clutch and her footwear (a pair of sparkly crystal accented heels) tied it all together.
3. Hair and Makeup
Earle’s outfit was as unexpected as her beauty look. She switched up her signature voluminous waves for a sleek low ponytail with a dramatic side part, in order to let her outfit be the star. The dress is emerald green, so a bold, graphic eyeliner in green and a nude lip balanced all of that out. Her outfit worked perfectly with the edgy modern effect the whole thing gave.
Why the Look Worked
Earle’s outfit succeeded because it embraced contrasts: A bit of minimalism with a twist, softness in edge, vintage meeting futuristic accents. Miu Miu’s identity is built on this balance of opposing elements, meaning her choice was in perfect harmony with that.
The look also showed Earle developing his style. This ensemble has showcased her ability to get into the high fashion world although she has been often associated with glamorous, Instagram friendly fashion. Her readiness to seek out the unexpected—a true fashion icon’s hallmark of course—was illustrated through muted tones, unconventional silhouettes and unconventional accessories.
The Impact on Her Fashion Trajectory
Sartorial risk be damned, Earle nailed it — aided by the fact that such a high-profile event is a serious place to be to play. Fans and critics alike both praised her for both being unapologetically herself among the slimming down trend, and for being able to both stand out and stay on brand.
It also was a turning point for Earle as a front row guest. She’s been seen around as an influencer attending shows, but this look put her on the map as a true fashion muse, someone who can interpret and wear a brand.
The Role of Influencers in High Fashion
Earle’s presence at Miu Miu’s show exemplifies a sea change that’s happening across the fashion industry. She is part of a new breed of influencer for the luxury brands, the one that helps them bridge the chasm between traditional fashion houses and a younger, digitally tech savvy audience.
It’s her balance of relatability (girl-next-door) and high fashion sophistication that makes Earle such a special asset to brands like Miu Miu. When she looked at the Spring/Summer 2025 show, it was unexpected and her versatility and the fact that she has the chance to create trends not just on social media.
The Show Itself: Miu Miu’s Vision for Spring/Summer 2025
While Earle was there to celebrate, the collection that he was there to celebrate was a huge testament to Miu Miu’s innovative approach to modern femininity. Highlights included:
Layered Slip Dresses: An interpretation of old fashioned lingerie, using asymmetrical cuts, sheer layering, and you know weird textures.
Utilitarian Chic: Tailored blazers with the delicacies of silk and organza, or cargo skirts.
