MILAN: PRADA S/S 2011


Just started combing through the menswear collections  ... and while Alexander McQueen felt lacking (and a little sad, but more on that later), Prada cheered me up! I've been contemplating the dreary turn fashion has taken recently, and leave it to the Renaissance Lady Miuccia Prada to make the revival of "minimalism" feel fun and fresh (and young!):




Prada can often feel odd, but never disingenuous. I love the horizontal necklines, the bright colors paired with khaki, weird medical-scrubs and the shoes (of course), however I do find Miuccia's fascination with the "ugly sweater" disengaging.

More on the latest menswear from Milan soon ...
