I want everything from the Miu Miu Autumn/Winter collection. Especially the shoes! Wow! Miuccia Prada launched Miu Miu in 1992 as the visionary sister label to fashion powerhouse Prada. Since then, it has filled some of the hottest runway shows with its sophisticated, eclectic collections, and earned a host of A-list devotees in the process. Blending classic cuts with avant-garde detailing, expect brightly colored prints on everything from sleek mini dresses to liquid-silk shorts.

Last week, I was privileged enough to attend the Miu Miu and Chuches’ RTO Press Days with Ernest, aka Yang for a preview of their 2011 RTO Collection. Our first stop was the Miu Miu store to see to see a collection, which’s’ inspiration designer Miuccia Prada described as coming from the modern day affinity of fame.
To me, this line has an African type vibe to it. I say this because the design on the fabric reminds me a lot of the fabric my mum would try to force me to wear when I was younger (and in fact up until this current day sometimes – typical). View pictures after the break.

High Fashion brand Prada unleash a whole new range of smart/casual men’s shoes, the collection consists of quality leathers black and dark brown classic and loafer styles. I like some of these, they are a good mix of smart and casual shoes- each show has a loafer meets classic style which makes them just perfect for work if you have dress smart but prefer to maintain a fashionable look. You can find any of these in Prada stores..

Produced and directed by OMA: Alexander Reichert & Fausto Fantinuoli and photographed by Phil Meech; fashion meets photography meets illustration to create Prada’s AW10 fantasy lookbook. I’m all for ideas that are different and i’m even more for brands that feel no way to think outside the box and do something thats unexpected and original and this is one of those things! I think its brilliant art but does it really serve its purpose as a campaign for a luxury brand? I’m not too sure because I don’t think it really reflects what we’re to expect from the collection. Having said that it’s eye catching an appealing to a certain audience so in that sense it works, have a look at the photos.. what do you think?

Prada collaborate with filmmaker & photographer Yang Fudong (who has produced some amazing work in the past, view here)to produce a stunning campaign they named “First Spring” for their spring/summer collection. The campaign consists of several print ads and a short film. I quite like the print ads, they are very Prada.. very simple and classy. Yang paints a Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon meets Mary Poppins picture with the flying umbrellas and oriental scenery.
