Prada Fall 2011
MILAN, Mar 23, 2011/ FW/ — Forget PETA! Miuccia Prada sent out fur on the runway and those pieces will surely fly off the shelves the moment they arrive in stores. By far, one of the most influential fashion designers of our time, Miuccia Prada just made wearing fur hip and cool once again! Milano Moda Donna Fall 2011 (function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; ...
Prada Men Spring 2011
MILAN, Jun 21, 2010 / FW/ — As a fashion critic, one of the attractions of menswear for me is that it is about the tailoring, the cut, and the little details on the garment rather than the pizzazz that usually surrounds womenswear. Hence, seeing Miuccia Prada’s decision to concentrate on these qualities more than just piqued my interest; it literally titillated...
Prada Men Fall 2010: Victor / Victoria
MILAN, Jan 18, 2010 / FW/ — Trust Miuccia Prada to do things her way on the runway and set her own trend while seemingly following one. With the military-inspired look as a very strong trend here in Milan, it was not surprising that Miuccia Prada sent out camouflage coats and jackets. What is surprising is that it was the exact same cut for men and for women…...

Prada Spring 2010: Flash Forward
MILAN, Sep 24, 2009 / FW/ — Futuristic yet old worldly, familiar yet new, the Prada Spring 2010 collection is a paradox, like seeing something in the future yet it also of today. The setting is almost garish, hence the futuristic déjà vu; the clothes are fresh, yet its raw edges ask the question why was it left raw? Gunmetal coat, a sleeveless mini dress with...
Prada Menswear Spring 2010: A Gray Day
Prada Menswear Spring 2010 MILAN, Jun 23, 2009 / FW/ — Way back during the 1990s, when the internet was very young, and browsers were just beginning to show colors, webmasters (that is the title given to the person who runs the website) used to celebrate a “ gray day” i.e. all web pages will revert to the “old days” when default background was gray. I had...
Milan Menswear Spring 2010 Trend: Suit Dressing is Hip & Cool
MILAN, Jun 22, 2009 / FW/ — The travel theme continues in Milan and one thing that these jet-setting men share in common is the suit jacket. Like the trench coat, the suit is also the subject of deconstruction and reconstruction this season as designers propose new way to wear it and new silhouettes for it. Versace, Carlo Pignatelli Outside, Gucci Recognizing the...
Prada Fall 2009: Cavalier Women
Prada Fall 2009 MILAN, Mar 6, 2009 / FW/ — Miuccia Prada creates new drumbeats and everyone follows. For Fall 2009, while majority of designers are preoccupied with the 1980s, Signora Prada, as she is fondly called by her staff had moved forward, though her influences are also from the past, but much further as in several thousand years further. A drop down waist...
Prada Menswear Fall 2009: Beautiful, Striking and Strong
Prada Menswear Fall 2009 MILAN, Jan 20, 2009 / FW/ — If I did not know any better, I would say that Miuccia Prada was trying to dress the stars of the sleeper hit ‘Twilight’. But Miuccia does not follow trends, she sets them. So, I could only surmise that the dark color palette she chose for Fall 2009 is a reaction with the current economic condition while the...
Prada Spring 2009: The Shoes of the Fisherman
MILAN, Sep 24, 2008 / FW/ — Crumpled parachute-like fabric cut to reveal the woman’s figure came in black, gold and the neutral palettes of beige and brown. Separates were composed of a pencil skirt and midriff baring bikini tops or brief jackets that are cut so short, you can actually see the skin between the skirt and the top. For play, Miuccia Prada proposes...
