Prada Fall Collection: Hit or Miss?

Thursday July 24, 2008
Well, Prada has debuted their handbag line for fall 2008, and I felt the need to share my feelings toward these bags. For this season, they have come up with some that are quite good in design, but there are also several pieces that might leave you saying, "What were they thinking?" Fall has a pretty large mix of trends, and feminine looks like lace, ruffles and dark jewel tones are just a few. Prada plays with these techniques, but I must say, some of the ideas are just awful to look at. Take this Prada Tessuto Bowler bag, is it innovative and couture, or is it just a boring black bag that they tried to make interesting and trendy with a messy looking ruffle? I will go with the latter. What do you think? Hit or miss?
