Miuccia Prada's latest collection had little to do with the prevailing fashions for spring: easy dressing in light and airy styles.



Her collection Tuesday was indeed light - she's into flesh baring these days - but certainly not easy to wear - or walk in.

Several models tottered and fell on the fish decorated runway, as they slipped out of their ultra-high heeled platform sandals strapped at the ankle. Many finished their catwalk, shoes in hand.



More than an overriding theme, the latest Prada collection is divided into categories from bra tops to dresses in python and fish prints, to variations of the old-fashioned night gown, to gilded evening wear.



To underline the potpourri feel of the collection Miuccia had all her models walk up and down the runway at the same time, creating the effect of a fashion kaleidoscope.
