Walk the Walk: Prada F/W 2012 Collection

Let's play with retro design and oversized embellishments, shall we?

No more automobile related pieces, for this coming season, Miuccia is bring us back to the retro geometric prints. To make sure you are getting the retro feeling, the prints are paired up with the pants suits which I think is a brilliant idea. While a lot of designers like to use small gems to decorate the clothing pieces, Miuccia decides to exaggerate this idea by making them big (as if they look like insects now) and this idea applies on both the clothing and bags. I find this collection to be very interesting and yes, it does mirror the menswear collection. What do you think?

So, there will be no pre-fall collection for Prada this season?

Pros:
- The colour palette is very nice, and Miuccia always aces the print department without any problem.
- There are a lot of pants suits this season.  These pieces are mirroring the menswear.
- The bags, are without a doubt, the most eye catchy pieces in this collection. The oversized embellishment is the key.
- How can you not like the sunglasses? They look very edgy.

Cons:
- Clearly the high heels need to be modified a bit before they can be released to the public. (Check the video out if you haven't seen it yet, even the designer herself almost fell down).

Eye Candies:
- Geometric print pants suits
- Bags
- Gems embellished pants
- Sunglasses
