This gorgeous Prada dress has that definitive retro feel you see in so many of Miuccia's designs, but still feels thoroughly modern too. I love the crisp silk taffeta she has chosen to use - it helps to hold the almost sculptural shape and that amazing deep pleating on the skirt. The shoulders are beautiful in their design - the neckline is set wide so the collarbones are exposed and the shoulders sit up just a touch so you get a lovely framing effect. The bust skims over the body with a front plunge. The waist cinches in for a fifties starlet feel. The skirt is a masterpieces - it is deliberately and meticulously shaped and draped with wide pleats of fabric. I think my favourite detail are the hidden pockets tucked between the folds of the skirt. The finishing is perfection and it has a decidedly fifties feel to it - like it is something that Grace Kelly would have worn and loved. Excellent condition Fully lined in silk and closes with a hidden set back zipper. Tagged a Prada 42. Appears unworn.
