This isn’t the first time high-end designers have taken an interest in locksmithing.

But instead of using padlocks as fanciful embellishments and adornments, these past few seasons saw designers making a case for the accessory in a realistic way. Like the models at the Miu Miu fall/winter 2023 show, I’ve held my keys in my hand while walking home at night — sometimes for safety but other times for pure convenience.
