PAINTERLY PRINTS


Miuccia Prada’s incredible print archive has been dipped into a few times over the past few years with dreamy results. In 2006 I was shopping in Florence when I spotted this Prada bag on chain (below) in the sale- an amazing collector’s item that I bought in a heartbeat. Now, six years later Prada have delved back in time once again and created a hit limited edition collection of sundresses. And like all clever high street stores, Oasis, quickly stepped up to the mark creating their own version of a painterly illustrated dress (bottom), complete with pretty cut-out detail back. A trend with staying power, consider these scenic prints future classics... Fresh, summery and full of personality, what’s not to love? 


My beloved Prada bag.
