Prada is an Italian luxury fashion house and its women’s garments have long been a staple for every women’s home wardrobe, if she has the means; if not, those outlet stores provide some pieces that may be more timeless than the rest, while the knock-offs can make some convincing versions as well that most would not be able to tell were fake. The brand has been in the news quite a bit lately, with its intentions to open up shop in Vancouver making as much of a buzz as the Asian market effects on the label, particularly with the fall in spending leading to a revaluation of the house’s strategy.
The 2015 collections were no different with the fall looking to be a long way away from spring, despite the soft, neoprene shapes in a pretty wide range of pastel hues. Furthermore, the hairstyles were entirely different, with the models sporting high ponytails with pins in them, pulled over to one side. It was interesting to see how staying warm in the winter months can be made possible with short sleeved shirts and shoulder length gloves to accompany them. There was a big play on the baby doll silhouette as well, one which we can totally see making its way into the next year’s fashion trends as well. It was certainly a collection worthy of applause and a special mention.
