No Room At Miu Miu?
Small-scale show venue has editors fuming.
Friday, March 03, 2006
(PARIS) With Paris Fashion Week already dominated by shows held in smaller-than-necessary venues, Miu Miu has taken exclusivity to a whole new level. Miuccia Prada’s show for her secondary line will take place at Lapérouse, a small restaurant housed in a 17th-century Seine-side townhouse in the 8th arrondissement.
With Prada having allegedly extended invitations to the crème de la crème of Paris fashion—Karl Lagerfeld, Stefano Pilati, Marc Jacobs, and Yves Saint Laurent—Miu Miu has become the single most coveted ticket of the season. Throughout the week, publicists have been frantically alerting the U.S. press to deliver the not-so-friendly news that, with only approximately 40 seats for editors and buyers, many regulars will not be admitted. Single tickets are said to have been issued to Teen Vogue and Jane, four for Elle, two for Allure, three for the New York Times, and only a few for Harper’s Bazaar and W. Glamour, Elle Girl, Nylon, and Lucky were told their editors would be receiving no tickets, and the fate of Marie Claire and Shop Etc. remains unknown. Even Vogue, the high-fashion bible that can often command 7-8 front row seats at any given show, has had to settle for a reported three. Not even the photographers have escaped the wrath of restriction. The buzz in the photo pits is that only six photographers will be allowed to shoot the show.
Givenchy, Giambattista Valli, Christian Lacroix, Lanvin, and Jean Paul Gaultier are just a handful of designers whose current venues allow only a small percentage of the press to attend. After a while, one can only ask, “what’s the point?” As one editor said, “Why build up all this buzz, spend all this money to come to Paris, and then disappoint everyone by not letting them in?”
