Prada Cast Black Model for Spring 2014 Campaign: Cindy Bruna Marks Third Woman of Color Featured in Prada Campaign
Prada recently released a preview of its spring 2014 advertising campaign, and among all of the brightly colored, mural-inspired looks, one person in particular really stood out in the image.
That individual is Cindy Bruna, the third woman of color ever cast for a campaign by Prada. For its fall 2013 campaign, the Italian luxury fashion house casted 18-year-old black model Malaika Firth, who was the first black model to appear in a Prada campaign since Naomi Campbell became the first ever back in 1994.
According to The Fashion Spot, Firth is also featured in the full spring 2014 campaign, which will debut in the coming weeks. The model also stars in Burberry's spring 2014 campaign alongside Jean Campbell, as well as other young British talents from the music and film industries, including Jamie Campbell Bower, Leo Dobson, Matilda Lowther, Neelam Johal and Callum Ball.
Bruna recently walked in this year's Victoria's Secret runway show, which was aired earlier this month.
Together, both Bruna and Firth show off Miuccia Prada's show-stopping spring looks in Prada's forthcoming campaign.
The collection features three-dimensionally embellished dresses with large faces on them, bejeweled bras worn over ribbed sweaters and coats, crewneck, sleeveless rugby sweaters, leg warmers that look like football socks, high rubber sport heels, crystals and encrusted paillettes, multicolored statement furs, feathered headbands, keyhole cutouts, colorblocking, jeweled external bras and Prada's take on Tevas.
Prada showed these items in a space that was transformed with huge murals - inspired by Diego Rivera and other Mexican muralists - of women's portraits that were commissioned from six contemporary artists who were told to focus on "an active, strong woman" in their work.
"I saw them as strong, visible fighters. We need to be fighters in general. There is this debate about women again, and I want to interpret it. My instrument is fashion. I use my instrument to be bold. I had this idea that if you wear clothes so exaggerated and out there, people will look, and then they will listen. It's a sort of trick. I want to be nasty," Prada said backstage in response to the questions regarding the models she sent down the runway.

she looks a little tense in the Prada shot, then again the girls who are known for not being glamorous or pretty are the stand-outs. Ashleigh, Iselin, and Lexi standout whereas Vanessa and Cindy definitely don't need to do edgy-ugly in shots.
 
^ Couldn't agree more. There's so much intensity in her eyes in each and every shot, this girl is a star.

^Couldn't agree more. Going beyond that she is one of the only girls of colour in the campaign, it's rather her elegance in her poise, yet her strong stare that makes Cindy everlasting. Immaculate.
 
I have always been on the fence with Cindy because personality she was too pretty in my opinion, which isn't a bad thing but it was hard for me to really accept her in high fashion and I was thought it was a girl Meisel was pushing, after seeing this campaign I agree with all of you, Cindy is a star. Being possibly the third girl of color to be featured in a Prada campaign it's pretty impressive.
 
^^ outstanding - love the last pic with the habdbags extremly,:wub:
 
She seems to be the only model showing any 'real' emotion in to Prada ads IMO.
 
^Gorgeous. She will be the next big thing, imo.

for some strange reason she reminds me of Joan (not physically but both beautiful and talented) and not that I dislike Joan but she has a serious contender on Cindy, I mean, her chameleonic beauty might help to achieve jobs at first moment could be granted to Joan. just saying this because we all know how (unfortunately) the fashion world is.
