FASHION FOOD AND FLOWERS

Fashion – Prada. Miuccia Prada always surprises us with her shows. See through lace was the theme for the Prada Autumn/Winter 2008/2009 Collection, but it was not used in the traditional sense of childhood, marriage or being a widow, but more in an austere sexual way. As Suzy Menkes wrote in the International Herald Tribune, the show was “…above all, inspiring and intensely Prada in a mix of the prim and the perverse.”

The VIP photographer and the editor in chief. Photographer, Mario Testino and French Vogue’s trendy editor in chief Carine Roitfeld chat backstage after the Prada show.
