Ms. Prada (Miuccia Mescaline) said she was hoping this
season’s iteration of Prada man would be “elegant but in a young new way.” Her
delusional fashion manifesto continues….

I want to know what she was drinking when she said that and
what drug she took when she unleashed this collection. After watching this show
I kept saying to myself... I know everyone
is just going to goo and gaah and ooh
and wet their pants over it but I kept think where is the WOW……………… the answer
is simply there was none and no matter how you spin it or regurgitate her words
.. These was clothes for the sake of clothes

Puffed up trapper hats, trainers, hot pants, loud prints
(speaking of ... think Peter Max not this crap) and Sperry topsiders do not
make this a collection that is supposed to be psychedelically inspired. It
makes for a whole lot of blah blab blah which so typical any Prada show... all talk...
oh yeah before I forget... turtleneck
and wintry colors certainly evoke Spring.

I’m sure that those who can afford this will be rushing out
to own and wear hot pants and turtlenecks with blazers that look like they came
from a thrift store or from Members Only. Fashion victims will have a field day
trying to replicate these supposedly fab hot new looks. Somehow having lived through
that era, I don’t recall the clothes being quite so pedestrian or boring. Yes,
they were shocking but where’s the shock and awe here.

Back to the start ... Where the fuck is the elegance she
speaks of ... Someone smarter than I needs to tell me sow me or explain to me where and what points
to any elegance of any kind. I know!! Must have been a blazer with hot pants!!
