Prada's Fall 2009 collection, in typical Miuccia style, gave fashion a check-up from the neck-up. The card-carrying communist sent an assortment of almost overwhelmingly sepia-toned looks down the runway, in very austere style that brought to mind a rally of the Facist Women of Padova in the forties.
Prada's showing, while practical, was still elegant in all the right places. The production, including the models' ghostly makeup jobs, made the occasional splash of color all the more energizing. Overall a fantastic presentation, however, in which Prada reminded us of her utilitarian roots.
"I love fashion, but I think it should stay in its place, not rule your life. It's a very nice part of your life, but I think it should be fun."- Miuccia Prada, UK Vogue
