TOP 5 Creative Fashion Photography (NO.2)

Miuccia Prada consistently brings a reality check to fashion: "I love fashion, but I think it should stay in its place, not rule your life. I think it should be fun."


Miuccia Prada is considered, in the fashion world, an intellectual designer. Prada is a pioneer in the world of conceptual fashion. Season after season she manages to surprise and inspire the notoriously critical and high expectations fashion crowd. By the 1990's, Prada was a leading force in fashion. The garments and accessories were smart, sophisticated, and extremely high quality. Luxurious fabrics and simple styles, mostly in blacks, browns, grays, greens, and creams, became the signature Prada look.


In 1992, Miuccia presented the more affordable Miu Miu line, which targeted a younger consumer. More flowing shapes and earthy colors and prints set this collection apart, although the simple designs and classic appearance continued the quality of the Prada label. Soon after, the Prada Sport label was created, followed by a line of men's wear and a lingerie collection.







Miuccia , along with her bussines strategic husband, Patrizio Bertelli, once again strikes this inimitable creative-commercial balance for the fall 2008 collection. Prada clothes are described as cool, comfortable, pure, graceful, and minimalistic. Her creative power has put her on the same competition with Christian Dior, Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, Giorgio Armani and Gucci.

Interesting: She has a PhD in Political Science, which she followed with five years studying performing mime. She was also a member of the Communist Party. Fashion Designer Prada was founded in 1913 in Milan, Italy as a manufacturer of leather bags, a heritage from her grandfather.

I personally find her clothes bizarre, yet fashionable. She mixes too many elements, like an outburst of ideas and every collection brigs out new textures, new fabrics, new design techniques. The Prada labelled bags and shoes are incredible. She makes a statement out of every collection and brings women in a powerful light.
