Milan Fashion Week: Prada SS17 review

Prada is one of the few brands who brings context to the ugly-chic aesthetic, and its spring summer 2017 runway collection was no different. If this collection was to be summed up in one item, it would have to be the blouse: it came seventies-style with exaggerated collars, in contrast florals, checks, ginghams, solids, stripes and sheers, proposed in hues of brown, purple, cream and orange. Difficult colours you may say, but when paired with bandeau tops in contrast fabric and colour, or worn with brown fitted high-neck long-sleeves poking from underneath, it felt neither outré or impossible.
