Prada vs Jeremy Scott
It’s Thanksgiving, I know – I ought to be snuggled up in a wooly jumper making an apple pie and planning my Christmas shopping list. But instead I’m sitting here dreaming about spring and patching together a collage consisting of the Beverly Hillbillies and cacti. Random how these things happen. I don’t even care though (soon I’ll swap into holiday mode and bake my turkey etc etc ec).
I can’t help but feel quite captivated by the classic 1950s imagery that inspired these collections. Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe and Thunderbirds for Prada. Flames, Santa Fe and Elly May Clampett for Scott. It’s a sort-of nod to all things Americana, in an exaggerated surreal form. Currently at the top of my ss12 wish list are those platformed saddle shoes by Jeremy Scott and the Prada sunglasses that Anna Dello Russo has already been strutting around in (swooon).
Images: fashion via style.com, cactus, hillbillies, Elvis, Marilyn.
I would never have thought of this comparison but OBVIOUSLY, hot rods aflame.
I really love those sunnies that ADR is sporting too xx
i like the scrolling bar better now with the small header! big improvement, i think that’s what i wasn’t sure about, as they were very similar in size.
This is such a great collage! Without doubt 2 of my favourite SS collections.

Hate the shoes all you want (you hate the Prada ones AND the Jeremy Scott ones?! how can this be?? they are wonderful). As long as you like the blog though I’m happy. xx

Jeremy Scott has created such a fun collection this sean. Equally as impressed with Prada. Plus I love the new layout, very techie with the new roller.

Hey, where do you think I could find the type of containers you have in this post: http://www.thestylecrusader.org/2011/11/cooee-design-giveaway/ ? I really need somewhere nice to organise my jewellery…
Thanks Joana!
Just asked where the cases are from… maybe Ikea has something similar? The Container Store in the US would definitely have that sort of thing… hmmm… will launch a little search and hopefully find something similar for you. xx
The one that they use in the showroom is custom made but they have similar ones available at Muji: http://www.muji.eu/pages/online.asp?V=1&Sec=9&Sub=39 xx
