I know the Prada show happened the other day but I have only just got round to watching it. The show received so much love and attention from the press, and quite rightly so as it was truly great.
"Dream is forbidden, nostalgia is forbidden, to be too sweet is not good. Everything we used to feel historically, now you can't enjoy. The clothes are the expression of this impossible dream." Miuccia Prada explaining backstage after the show that she wanted to create a show which embraced the traditions of femininity. Whilst she successfully achieved this aim, she also created a fantastic show which embraced the 1960s and had a real influence of Japanese culture, from the origami style folds, the Japanese printed blossom and the Harajuku girl style platforms in which the models wore.
I also loved the simplicity of the show with the childlike floral drawings printed onto almost every piece throughout the show, sometime in an Andy Warhol style repetition but at times just a singular floral motif. This mixed with the monochrome colour palette, juxtaposed with the flashes of red and bright red lips of the models made sure that the show was just brilliant!
Enjoy xx
