If form follows function, the Miu Rider bag epitomizes accessorizing for women on the fast track. Introduced in Miu Miu’s resort 2018 collection, the belt bag’s design, inspired by race car uniforms, exudes cool and adds flashy flair to any sporty ensemble. With white-striped edging and constructed of smooth leather in a patchwork matelassé, the Miu Rider comes in four heart-racing colorways: navy and powder blue; oxblood and Sugar Pink; True Red and black; and black and Racing Green. With an adjustable buckle, the Miu Rider can sling low and hug the hip or cinch the waist, making it a versatile piece that proves sometimes being empty-handed is a good thing.
