Miu Miu Opens Frankfurt Store | New German Luxury Boutique

Miu Miu has opened the doors of a brand new boutique in Frankfurt, its third German store.
You'll find it on the exclusive Goesthestrasse shopping strip alongside iconic brands like Rolex, Longchamp, Chanel, Armani, and the label's sister brand Prada. Where else?
Like other Miu Miu boutiques, architect Roberto Bachiocchi has placed his distinctive stamp on the store. It's clad in opulent brown marble accented with gold damask upholstery and a bold brass Miu Miu logo.
Inside you'll find Miu Miu's famous handbags, footwear, and small leather goods. But as with any store opening, the biggest draw card will be a special limited edition bag available exclusively at the Frankfurt store. German shoppers can indulge in a rare brown version of the label's popular Paloma satchel.
The Frankfurt store seems well placed to succeed considering its enviable location, despite the line's latest batch of lackluster accessories. Hopefully it can create something worthy of those opulent surrounds soon!
