Hello fellow Judges,
How the devil are you on this fine Spring day ? I am sat at my desk with the sun streaming through and the birds twittering away ! Spring has finally arrived and here we are all full of the joys of the season ! It seems Spring has finally started and the smiles on the faces of folk around town can only be described as infectious.
The style council are already out in their joyous new clobber for the season and some very interesting looks are happening out on the cobbled streets. People seem to be pounding the concrete in shorts and t shirts to cast away the final throws of Winter. I must say Spring is my favourite season it seems people just seem to be able to smile again and are no longer cast in their black cloaks or heavy coats. The first rays of sun of sun bring about a change in us Brit's and a sense of optimism is sweeping over us again.
Maybe I have that S.A.D thing as all I wanted to really do this Winter was sleep and eat, or is that us all ? So Judges, what is your favourite season ? How do those first rays of sun make you feel ? Go on let me know, you know you want to !
So all the shows are done for this season Miu Miu and Prada are being coveted by every fashion hack pounding the streets in there lipstick heels and 50's retro Miu Miu sunglasses, thinking they are somehow more glamorous than you screen sirens who have already gone crazy for them. The look Muccia wanted to portray was that of Americana in it's heyday back in the days where stars had real clout and set trends and just entertained. Stars in those days had true talents and glamour came naturally to many think Audrey, Marilyn, Greta , Rita the list goes on so come on ladies channel that inner siren.
The relationship between entertainment and fashion has always been a strong one but Muccia Prada took it to another level this season in her menswear show when rather than casting models she decided to call on every A Lister she has kitted out over the past couple of decades in a Baroque inspired collection for A/W 12. Anyway I digress sorry for that tangent slipping in there focus Judge focus.
For you men reading this Prada sunglasses are not only practical stylish and quality pieces, they have the ability to make you somehow feel somehow more stylish than you already are and with there simple lines and sporty look transport you from the sports field to the streets in a hop skip and a jump.
Ladies Prada designer shades have smashed it with the whole collection featuring heavily in the fashion press, music videos on screen and more obviously on the streets near you. The collection nods back to fashion archives and styles are big ,they bring a wearable look to any outfit.These are set to become the new classics for 2012.
The collection is divided into the main collection and the 'The Swing' collection takes inspiration from a simple round frame with scrolling detailed arms in various fashionable colours, 'the Swing' collection looks back as always will keep you looking one step ahead. These beauties are not for everyone but the main collection has something for everyone and will keep those peepers protected and looking right up there with the A Lister's.
Muccia prada is creative director for both Prada and Miu Miu and has set what has in the past been a brand that was concerned with style and no substance, to a more cerebral label of late with technique and new fabric innovations always featuring in both labels collections. Prada caters for the higher end and more fashion conscious with such a knowledge of her market she never seems to fail these days.
Miu Miu is Muccias more fun side and often features bright and bold patterns that you may need to wear your Carte noire to look at yourself in the mirror. The Carte Noire collection of Miu Miu eye wear is again a separate collection to the mainline but i can only envisage this will continue to influence the collections direction what with Muccia introducing the stunning cameo collection of jewellery pieces this year .
So for now my fellows i shall bid you good day
Remember to keep us posted on your news and thoughts and thank you for reading.
Keep 'em peeled
The Judge
