Prada F/W 2010

On the subject of Prada, Miuccia showed her Fall/Winter collection today. With images of the beauty parlor throughout the set, the models walked the runway with towering beehives, wearing pieces that were an ode to a woman's body. The focal point of the collection was the breasts, with ruffled elements and naughty nipple-exaggerationing details saying "hello" to the viewer. With the appreciation of busty babes came bustier-than-normal babes down the runway, including Doutzen Kroes, Catherine McNeil, Lara Stone, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Miranda Kerr. That said, these women are still models and not an accurate reflection of all women. The interesting mix of knits and rubber, an accentuated waist, and lovely knit knee-high socks were also highlights in my mind. Miuccia always makes me want to buy socks, which I find absolutely strange. The designer simply deemed the collection revisions of classics from the nineties, though I find that too modest a statement. Sure, one could dismiss this collection as ugly, but I believe Miuccia's idea of what is "sexy" is absolutely enthralling. Katie Grand's comments on the collection perfectly sum it up.

"Big tits, high heels, beehive..."

"That's kind of some foxy woman that likes a cigar for breakfast."

"They all look like none of them have got knickers on, foxy, naughty women."
