Miuccia Prada's collections for both Prada and Miu Miu are always slightly unsettling at first, by Miuccia's choice, and the latest collection for the little sister brand was no exception. Miss Prada told style.com "I was thinking about everybody's obsession with being famous." Watching the show on video revealed various soundbites from the original Fame and also American Idol's intro, among others. The collection was a highly graphic, Pop Art-esque mix of color, shine, and print. In several looks, boxy reflective leather jackets anchored lighter dresses complete with pleats and star prints. It was certainly attention-grabbing. The shoes were a Day-Glo dream, taking the form of Mary Janes on acid. It's riveting to see how Miss Prada can take an idea and warp it past the point of recognition. This one still has to grow on me, but in keeping past seasons in mind, I know it will.
