	Prada Spring 2005 Ready-to-Wear Collection on Style.com: Runway Review
		To bring the audience into her new reality, Prada stripped her familiar clean, boxed-in stage set down to the bare industrial walls, then projected Rem Koolhaas's mind-scrambling collage of live news images onto them.
		In broad terms, the news from Prada included a different silhouette (short hemlines, worn mostly with flat sandals), a return to one of her favorite palettes (brown-ochre-rust), and as always, lots of artful eccentricity (peacock feathers, flowerpot hats, Bakelite digital watches).
		It seems surreal to say this was one of the plainer, simpler Prada collections we've seen for a long time.

	TIME: Women in Fashion: Miuccia Prada
		Whereas fashion expects an image to be constantly updated, Prada reportedly sank upwards of $100 million into projects that are supposed to be permanent, if not immutable: her architecturally pioneering stores in New York City (by Dutch brainiac Rem Koolhaas) and Tokyo (by the precise Swiss duo Herzog & De Meuron).

		Prada launched her eponymous ready-to-wear collection for autumn/winter 1989 to critical acclaim.

		Prada is gambling many millions of dollars that it can complete its transformation from a small, family-owned Italian company, which was once revered by the European élite for its incomparable leather goods, into an international fashion conglomerate.
		Miuccia Prada, the granddaughter of the company’s founder, who took over the firm in 1978, started a craze ten years ago with a simple nylon backpack; by the early nineties, shrewd marketing had made her clothes a favorite of the young, voguish movie-star set.
		Many Prada customers worked in art galleries or advertising, in the movies or television, in fashion or beauty—and what they wore had to communicate silently all sorts of messages about their sophistication and their taste.

	Prada Store Tokyo by Herzog and de Meuron
		Prada’s Tokyo “epicenter”, in the fashionable Aoyama district, is the company's second radical approach to fashion-store architecture, following Rem Koolhaas’ flagship store in New York.
		At Prada Aoyama the glass walls are not the usual transparent curtain-walling (as at Renzo Piano’s Maison Hermes, across town in the Ginza district), but a transparent, structural shell.
		The Prada building sits in a corner of its site, creating a small entrance plaza — an effective gesture of restraint from an otherwise rather unrestrained building.

		The contrast this season didn't have the romantic edge of last spring's naïf-printed mousseline, but the same high-low impulse was there, dictating, among other things, silver sneakers with a suit.
