MENSWEAR PRADA AND GUCCI S/S 09 REVIEW

Typical summer shades seemed far from the minds of numerous designers at the beginning of fashion week.

That was, of course, until Frida Giannini injected some unbridled life into the proceedings.

Not only is Giannini reminding us of the archetypal Gucci aesthetic, she is also making clear her distinct lack of vision for the development of this line.


With Prada’s menswear offering, Miuccia Prada has shown she’s not quite finished with her gender-meddling designs, although this season it was admittedly more subtle.

The quiet androgyny theme arose again with entirely unwearable monstrosities such as polo-dresses.
