Prada's Fall 2012 Campaign Video

How Prada’s Fall 2012 collection has managed to bypass me is a mystery. If only on a personal level, the collection is a huge success based purely on the fact that Miuccia has managed to reinvent the skirt-over-trouser style that up until now was somewhat of a nineties nightmare for me. Not only that, but she’s alerted me to the fact that maybe two layers of clothing that are otherwise worn singularly are not enough. Why wear only a dress over your trousers when you can add a sleeveless coat-dress into the mix too? For all, this collection is a lesson in layering – a concept which sounds relatively simple, but requires much more skill than you would ever want an admirer of your outfit to be aware of.  

Whether you remain scarred by memories of yourself in a skirt-trouser combination that was truly awful, or you just weren't entirely convinced by the collection on first sight (I'll allow that the mesmerising geometric prints used added another dimension that could terrify the minimalists among us), allow Prada's Fall 2012 video to convert you. There is no denying that the outfits look fantastic.
