thanks for posting the pics!
this will take a while to digest. i tot the pieces are so everywhere! totally unlike what i expected since the menswear. not liking the prints with the fish, i think they look kinda cheap. otherwise, the crumpled detail and unexpected placement of fabrics r interesting.
gosh, what's up with those shoes. they don't even look dangerous. poor girls!

So far it's genius, exactly what I wanted!

I never got why Prada is venerated or seen as a pioneer.

it's official...i like this all of it. maybe just not the snake-print! i like the hair...very regal.
This is the first time I have ever liked a Prada collection right off the bat. There's a first time for everything I suppose.
There's something very Belle de Jour about those opening looks with the jacket randomly opened over a bra paired with a pencil skirt. But even though her clothes have gone from prim and chic to rumpled and sl*tty, her chignon and makeup look flawless. I love that.

Prada takes a tumble
By Suzy Menkes
Published: September 23, 2008
As the models wobbled on their fetishistic platform shoes that were tied with white lingerie frills at the ankles, it seemed symbolic of Prada's show on Tuesday. In her deft play on womanhood and seduction, Miuccia Prada has rarely put a foot wrong. But this time she took a tumble as obvious as the unfortunate model, whose figure, folding up like a pipe cleaner as she hit the concrete floor, made even the most seasoned fashionista squirm.
No Prada collection is other than intriguing. The Elvis Presley music on the soundtrack gave a sensual overtone. But after last season's stellar riff on lace, this show covered some familiar ground - except that this time, the path was painted with a shoal of fish. The motif then turned up as a pattern on a cotton dress, emphasizing the mix of innocence and sexuality in the show.
"Going primitive - going back to the essence of things - I wanted to clean it up," said Prada backstage, referring to slim jackets and skirts in crumpled cotton, with a thrusting bra out front. Then there were the naive fish prints that looked like a kid's duvet cover and rompers, visible when a skirt flicked up. These child-like pieces were shown with a knowing innuendo that was disturbing.
Prada said she focused on the obsessions of women. That seemed to be sex of a blatant kind as the models looked like madams with their upswept chignons and oiled chests.
After the global success of Prada's lace, it was hard to see what would be the must-have piece of the season. Then came gilded dresses that had a brash bravure. But the strained faces of the models as they tried to walk the runway will be the lasting memory of this strange show.

I'm not entirely sure why, but I really love this.
The crumpled effect on the clothes are really great, and i actually love the final 4 pieces, even though they are very, very gold...they seem to manage to not look tacky.
But the shoes, poor models!
Suzy's review seems to be more about the models and shoes than the collection itself!
