Do Like: Prada for Spring

I only study the designer's new shows for the occasional inspiration - not to place my Spring/Summer orders! And often the runway shows are too outre for my humble tastes. But every now and them something new and pretty catches my eye.

I really like what Miuccia Prada showed this season, a  collection of Japanese-inspired, architectural pieces. They look so clean, minimalistic and fresh, but with the white flower to remind us that these are pretty clothes for women.


A casual snapshot of the models. I do like the simple black coat with the
white flowers. I'd add some pants to look #2. Source.


Love the clean lines juxtaposed with the vibrant floral. Source.


The folds in the skirt add so much interest. And I'm loving ivory. Source.



Have a super-duper Saturday, and don't forget, Monday, September 24th is Visible Monday! Everyone is welcome to participate!

    Wow, I'd wear any of these clothes in a heartbeat. At first glance, in the first photo I thought the model on the far left was Ariane of Style Montreal Sud Est!

  5. I adore the print on that second dress. Digital prints are one trend I love in high fashion. Runways may not always be as "ready to wear" as they act, but they do provide lots of inspiration.

  6. I like the prints, very pretty, but can't get into the socks-and-sandals look!

  11. The daisy flower is very similar to Mary Quant's and so lovely! The clothes are all gorgeous, but the footwear really takes first prize with me!

  13. My picks along with Prada, is Viv's Red label collection, Marni and Creatures of the Wind. Oh, and Dolce and Gabbana's collection- but I think I say that every season!
