The Ivy raffia and crochet line reimagines Miu Miu's Ivy silhouette in hand-woven natural raffia or open-knit crochet, trimmed in tonal leather with light gold-tone hardware. It launched for Spring/Summer 2024 and quickly became a viral "summer bag" across TikTok and Instagram, offered in both shoulder-bag and tote formats.
A softer, more compact shoulder-bag format of the Ivy raffia/crochet line, with an adjustable, removable strap for crossbody wear.
A larger, more structured tote format of the same raffia/crochet construction, priced above the shoulder-bag version at retail.
Reference note: exact SKU/colorway not verified, variants seen (e.g. 5BA281_2IH6_F0B67_V_OR5) correspond to specific seasonal colorways, with natural/tan tones the shade most associated with the line's "artisan/summer" identity. Against a retail band of roughly $1,600-$2,500, resale currently runs about $900-$1,900, or roughly 55-75% retention at peak season, but with real seasonal swings, since demand here is trend-driven rather than tied to a permanent hero silhouette. Concretely, a tote in a desirable colorway listed in April or May can realistically fetch close to 70-75% of its original price, while the same bag listed in November often sees noticeably softer offers, closer to 55%. Takeaway: this is a bag to buy and wear, or resell, within its season rather than to hold long-term; list in spring or early summer while the trend is active rather than waiting through the off-season.
Part of Miu Miu's Spring/Summer 2024 collection, the raffia and crochet Ivy-line bags reworked the house's Ivy silhouette in hand-woven natural raffia and open-knit crochet, trimmed in tonal leather with light gold-tone hardware. Straw and raffia bags were widely flagged as a defining summer 2024 trend across the fashion industry, and Miu Miu's version, with its "Miu Miu" wordmark worked directly into the weave or embroidered onto the knit, became one of the most talked-about executions of that trend.
The line launched in two carry formats, a structured tote and a softer shoulder bag, at retail prices generally spanning roughly $1,600 to $2,500 depending on size and construction, with the more labor-intensive crochet knit typically priced above the woven raffia. Because it's an artisan, seasonal material rather than part of Miu Miu's core leather goods, the brand has continued reissuing raffia and crochet colorways in subsequent warm-weather seasons rather than treating the SS2024 release as a one-off drop.
The bags went genuinely viral on TikTok and Instagram in summer 2024, spawning a wave of styling videos and, notably, DIY tutorials from creators making their own raffia and crochet totes for a fraction of the retail cost, some estimated their materials at under $40 versus the designer price, which is itself a strong signal of just how widely the look was chased and copied.
The moment helped cement raffia and straw bags as a recurring "Gen Z summer bag" category rather than a single-season fad, with Miu Miu's version frequently cited as the style that kicked off the broader trend. Because its appeal is tied closely to warm-weather styling and social-media cycles, though, interest, and resale demand, visibly cools each fall before picking back up the following spring.
