kind of cute

zoomslow said...

Not a fan of either :-/ I don't think the shapes are very sypathetic to the body. The clothes seem stiff and awkward. And the lace only seems to reinforce the surface nature of the designs.

Looking at the pictures my Dr. Evil pinky was activated. Hmmm. It's nice to see a theme revisited that way.

Also, I just got long skirt that I'm planning on hiking up into a belted sundress- I saw you do that with the prada lipstick skirt and thought it was a great idea :)

Lately I prefer Miu Miu to Prada (espacially because the latest Prada knitted collection) - and to notice this similarity - that's kind of briliant, Tavi :)

On the other hand - this might be slightly disturbing, is Miuccia Prada ripping off her own ideas? :)

Erin said...

I'm not a fan. It's kinda grandma-on-cocaine-ish to me.

Ross said...

eh, what is fashion but a continued recycling program? A good one, but recycled still.

Caddy said...

As always Prada makes something like fabrice that reminds you of old lace curtains or tablecloth look cool and current!!

Tavi said...

Misery and Ross-My thinking wasn't that she ripped off her own ideas, just a reinterpretation..Miu Miu is supposed to be the little sister of Prada so I just enjoyed this similarity that depicted that very well.

Brianna said...

I didn't really like the Prada .... kind of like a bunch doilies all sewn together. But in some ways it is kind of cute!

You are so amazing and attentive to notice these similarities! I prefer the MiuMiu one.

You have such an incredible eye. How on earth did you put those two together?!

ITF Style Reporter Sarah Schneider said...

Thats so ironic that Miu Miu's mother company could have the same idea as they did. Maybe it was fate. Or maybe a designer was reviewing past looks.

Unknown said...

HAHA. So similar!

Unknown said...

that remains one of my favorite prada collections EVER!

Stef said...

Or very stylish mother and very cool daughter.

Hi Tavi, we are trying to contact you for an interview with our Peruvian magazines Asia Sur and [Bash](www.AsiaSur.com). Please let us know when you are available. Thank you!

Unknown said...

I see the similarities, rather hard not to notice them but I am surprised the superiority of the Prada, is a paradox

I invite you to ...

i always thought of mui mui as prada's little sister, but i have a feeling the little sister is growing into her own. it will be interesting to see mui mui grow

we'll i definitely prefer the miumiu version since i thought this prada collection was far too grannylike. eventhough that's probably what was supposed to have been "edgy" or "special" about it... i kinda didn't like it.
