Pilar Fogliati Gives the Miu Miu Apron Dress a Try

The 2026 Rome Film Festival may not have the biggest Hollywood names in attendance, but the fashion is certainly catching my attention.

Especially Pilar Fogliati, who attended the premiere of her upcoming film, Il Profilo Dell’Altra, on Thursday.

When it comes to her pink Miu Miu gown with floral embroidery, the question is: where do you even start?

Not with the hemline, I can tell you that for free.

It’s the apron-style bodice that has me scratching my head, followed closely by the beige bikini-style bra underneath.

We’re well accustomed to seeing these apron-style dresses from Miu Miu, but the styling of this particular look is beyond confusing. The gown itself has so much potential, especially with those delicate floral embellishments, yet the bra feels completely disconnected from everything else.

Why beige? Why that shape? And why make something that could have been so charming look so awkward?

A bandeau would have been an improvement. A cropped top could have worked, too. There were several ways to make the apron-style bodice work, yet it’s almost as though Miu Miu didn’t even try to make this wearable for the red carpet.

That’s what makes it so frustrating, because I genuinely believe this could have been a beautiful look.
