in terms of shrewd business acumen, if miu miu/prada had any, they would bring back allumino asap! or at least have another shade of grey in some sort of buttery, non-glazed, leather. sigh, a girl can dream.
I agree! They should bring back the matt leather and the gold hardware also... or make a choice available between the gold and silver each season.
They really should stalk the forums for 'market research'.
