Prada SS15



Purple sand dunes. If the live stream taught me anything, prada was there to wow with this collection. From the deep royal purple seating and eerie sci-fi whirring soundtrack, the audience spent a good half an hour building up anticipation in awe of the scene around them. 

After all that,you feel prada to show us what the future of fashion will be but you certainly didn't expect 70s denim to come strutting its way down the runway followed by blouses worn with full leather skirts etc. Miuccia Prada then told you that patchwork floral dresses with raw frayed edges are what next seasons choice of outfit – especially when paired with granny nylon socks (both nude and floral printed) and the chunkiest platforms.



Two season pros made a return in Prada's show as model Gemma Ward opened the show in a white stitched black denim trenchcoat and Lara Stone closed it in a kimono silk trapeze coat. Ward in particular was the real surprise casting, sending waves of excitement across social media. After six years away from the catwalk, there couldn't have been a poignant show to stage a comeback. Embodying the feeling of the familiar and the new, Ward and Stone took to Miuccia's cut 'n' paste retro tinged collection as though time had never passed. A timeless show and collection almost.
