If Mads Mikkelsen was part of the show I would've fallen SO HARD on him😭

I love that Prada put so much effort into creating hype around a men's fashion show, I am so excited for men to get the same level of creativity applied to their clothes as women get!

Prada is quite one of the Single Men's wear that actualy try to make something for mens rather than just basic tshirt, shirts, trousers, sport pants. They actualy give personality to clothes, they inspire me alot, i wish i could affrod them tho.. maybe one day lol. Also damn i regret getting tattoos, i really wish i could have been a model for them.

Honestly the "look at her in her wrinkled skirt" had me howling. This fashion show is the only one my husband hasn't got bored during and after it he was like "that's how I want to dress"

Thanks cause this is my favorite fashion show clip. Like they knew they were serving sexy villian ❤❤

I want to be a sexy villian too 💀, but i won't give up my cowboy hat and black white beard.

The Haute LeMode villain narratives are everything.

I like that the actors looked like they were having fun and the actors has sexier way of walking thank the models. Garret Hedlum’s walk 👩🏾‍🍳💋

I honestly try for a whole year to mimic the style of walk but i always start to get shy and i can't even walk proprely lol, and i do that in public which is worse. But i figured out aslong i'm confident, i can even walk into a wall, but if i do it confident, it looks great. So the key is the Confidence..

Love this format! Just casually talking about a fashion show and enjoying it! Please do more of these!!

Omg the tie in to Sirius Black’s aesthetic instantly snapped the entire collection into place for me! Love it!

That was a great show. Very archival. Love the depth of thought in each piece. The boys smiling as they line up at the end like young boys again probably thinking "that was awesome guys we KILLED it" was such a bonus 😆. Thank you as always for a delicious breakdown, Luke! ❤

I never knew the show was from 12 years ago

right? it doesn’t look dated at all, what a timeless collection!

You truly elevate by intellectually looking at fashion. I hope the fashion houses realize the valuable service you provide. In this case Prada, should be over the moon. You have the power words and thought. And so much fun

I also wonder if Muccia Prada was referencing the Teddy Boy sub-culture of the 1950s/1960s. They had a very neo-Victorian/Edwardian dandy style of dress. It would certainly make sense with the colored sunglasses, though that could be the influence of Mod style (the actor Steve McQueen’s style would be a good example of this) on the collection as well.

Yeah I just left a stupidly long comment on that. It's the first thing I noticed. Especially the models giving off that kinda attitude as well. Maybe a cockiness in the walk and super confident look at me kinda thing.

You need to do Willem Dafoe's poses ...and the clothes in them❤😂

this GUY is so PASSIONATE....and i LOVE THAT

Being from South Africa my eye immediately saw Xhosa and Ndebele designs in that carpet. Maybe worth it to look into that, Luke. Thank you for all your research and detail - that is why I watch your channel.

All reference of this iconic collection is “Devil wearing Prada” Villains wearing Prada too. PS good video very enjoyed !

A legendary collection; thank you for showcasing it, the wonderfully detailed references/inspiration, and the magnificent talent who walked the runway. You never disappoint.

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO MAKE A VID ABOUT THISSSS

First off, let me just get this outta the way- I WANT THAT SHIRT, WHERE CAN I GET THAT???? Now, this is in my opinion Prada's Best menswear collection she's ever done! I loved everything and if I had the money I'd buy all of it! Adrian's blood red coat is to kill for, literally. The actors were great and also, if anybody remembers this, William Dafoe has modeled for Prada's ads many years before, so he's pretty much the House's menswear ambassador. I really enjoyed this long overdue review, so thank you so much Luke for doing this! TTYL! ✌💕

Jamie Bell played a villain in the 2011 movie "Retreat" with Cillian Murphy and Thandiwe Newton.

I really love this collection. I wanted to mention that one of the things that really stood out to me inspiration/influence wise straight away. Was the whole late Beatnik into Mod aesthetic both in the men's and women's collection but, especially the men's. The layering of the coats the high necks and polo necks. With the layered sweaters. The fur coat in the video looked like a plush padded Parker. When I went back and looked at the women's collection the make up with the white face and black/brown eyes screamed Mary Quant. It also plays into that gender element as Mods played with that a lot. The men getting into using make up mainly eye shadow. The women being more androgynous often wearing 3 piece suits like the men, flat shoes and short haircuts. I mean Vidal Sassoon and Quant practically corned the market. You could see a lot of the models in the women's collection with flat shoes and the again layered long tailored coats over trousers and the straight lines. I see a lot of Cardin and Courrèges in the cut and patterns especially for the women. Miuccia would have been a late teen into her 20's when the mod thing was truly hitting it's stride. I think that's what I like about it so much. The 1920's jazz thing fits as well, modernists was meant to refer to the fact that they listened to modern Jazz rather than traditional. Sorry this is so long it's my first comment here, I love how layered your videos are and how much research you do. I always find them so interesting.

The rugs are just copies of slavic embroidery patterns mostly used in cross stich borders. Traditionally, they made on white fabric with thick black and red threads and are held by two concentric wooden hoops. The white fabric is like a large cross stich weave in a perfect orthogonal system, and the embroidery follows the exact orthogonality. This means the designs can easily be copied from a smaller to a larger scale and this knowledge is transferred between generations just by the simplicity of looking at past designs and mapping out the grid. Of course the designs vary in complexity and color variation but this one comes most closely to the russian type.

The rugs look inspired by the Balkan-region who weaved beautiful and intricate rugs with these colours!

Your amount of research and knowledge is amazing and inspiring! This is one of my favorite menswear collections of all time. The Jersey Shore “PECS” situation I do agree, but I also think when you look at Armani, Ferragamo, Zegna or Dolce and Gabbana, they tend to have more masculine tailored suits, then say Parisian houses or Prada typically. Thank you!

The Miuccia T-shirt returns!🕴️

Adrian Brady is the scariest baddie in Peaky Blinders. I absolutely love these clothes.

If you like Gary Oldman playing villains, I can HIGHLY recommend 'Léon: The Professional'. He is one of my favorite actors ever! 🤩

I was going to say the same thing! He's an UBER villain in that movie because he's supposed to be one of the good guys (a DEA agent), but his character is a murderous drug addict and dealer who's gone totally insane due to his drug use and he's hiding his crimes behind his badge and office. His performance as a mentally unhinged "cop gone bad" is STUNNINGLY BRILLIANT in this movie, and I've been in love with him as an actor ever since.

He was also a terrific villain in True Romance!

So much fun. Loved it! Truly amazing to learn about all the references and connections. Thanks Luke ❤️

This is one of the best videos you’ve ever done, one of the best collections ever. Thank you.

This has been one of your BEST videos of 2024! Wish men could experiment their everyday life clothes as stylish as this, at least a muted version of this gorgeousness! All I see around is men in shirts, jeans and sneakers.

This was fascinating, and I hope you do more, for sure! You have a really interesting take on the history, craftsmanship, and intellect that goes into fashion, and I'm SO here for it!

This collection is everything! I love the name Prada Villians Collection, that 🔥🔥🔥. I kinda wish this were recent.

I remember this collection! I was very into it and I loved the idea. My fave was always Wilhelm Dafoe's look.

ABOUT DAMN TIME!!!! I’ve been waiting for you to do a focused video on this FOR YEAAAAAARRRRRSSSS

This was so good Luke!

Absolutely loved this! Please do more videos in this format.

This is one of my favorite reviews that you’ve done!! Fantastic research and so much knowledge of fashion history. I loved it! ❤

This was a lot of fun, thank you! I absolutely love all of the context that you bring to your videos 🩷

I have been waiting for you to review this collection!! So iconic

That was really fun! Love the format.

This was a lovely video. Your excitement and love for this collection and designer really shines, and I couldn't help but smile with you.

this is one of my favorite videos that you have done. It had everything. I love all those actors; can't believe Mrs. Prada got them all in one place. I love the way you are so off-the-cuff and comfortable with your knowledge of fashion history and film history. You are one prepared dude and it shows in the best possible way. Your presentation style makes this channel. Love you.

Love this Prada show and love your commentary. Thanks!

this is one of my favorite collections, thank you for making this video!

A HUGE VIDEO ABOUT ONE OF MY FAVORITE PRADA SHOWS FOR YEARS? AND NOW IT VIRAL? Wow

Great video! Love your references. Your channel is wonderful!

Loved this video. Very geeky and detailed!! Many thanks for this!

When I first saw the red rug, I immediately thought of the Saudi Sadu pattern! It’s a heritage in Saudi and these patterned wool were created by bedouins to use them as dessert tents or as we call it “Khaima”. Look it up to see the resemblance yourself (there’s a lot of colors but mostly its black, red, and white) It’s amazing that there’s a lot of similarities in these patterns across different cultures!

Oooo I’ve been waiting for this video ❤❤❤

Its one of my most fav runway I have seen and I always love remembering it so thankyou for covering this collection

my fave of your videos so far!❤️❤️❤️

I wish Mads had been included. With his dance background he has just wonderful control over his body and movement and he’d have killed it.

Loved this!!!!

W. O. W. This was your best video yet!!!! And the bar was already so high. I can't believe what a great collection this is---thanks to you, I see the details that I missed. And to note Emil Hirch---I haven't seen him in ages. Thank you!

Wonderfully researched and informative review! Thank you, Luke! ❤❤❤

Great work! Congrats

This was riveting. I watched every second of your talk.

I loved this new video format, I endorse it. Thanks for another amazing video!

I immediately thought of the Shining when I saw that rug. I’m so glad you mentioned it.

Incredible. Thank you ❤️‍🔥

Love it! Thanks so much for all the research that increases my appreciation 1000% very interesting fashion. My fav was the red coat that adrian brody wore.

Thank you for this!!!!

Thank you very much for this video! very exciting insights ❤

This was so great! Learned so much and really enjoyed the cultural and film immersion.

Your passion for fashion and your knowledge of the history of fashion is phenomenal. I loved watching this episode❤❤❤❤

I really like the analysis to all the different references. ❤

I forgot about this one! But seeing Adrien Brody brought my memory back into proper focus

Prada should have a brochure explaining their artistic ideas. PS. Beautiful men's wear. Also in my youth, women LOVED pea coats. (1969)

I'm so glad it's having a moment! One of the few men's shows I actually watched all the way through and loved a lot of the designs. I thought the rug design was meant to mirror the designs on the bags and shoes of the women's line for that season. That floral motif was in a lot of the shoes and bags and are some of my fave Prada designs.

LOVE this collection!

Thank you so much for doing this video!! Seeing the "villians" come out and do their walk caused heart palpitations, lol... Always a sucker for a bad man! ❤❤❤

Watching this back-to-back with Nicole Rudolph's new video on the history of the tuxedo meant I was actually able to guess some of the historical references before you even brought up the visual refs. ❤

Oh I have been wating for you to do this show Luke!!! I just LOVED this. There was such an edwardian feel I just adored. Best menswear show i have seen in years. ❤❤❤ thank you!!

I had been seeing this going around and wished that someone who knew about Fashion would do a full video about it because the icons in this were just phenomenal! Is there a version where actresses have done this in fashion also? This was epic and I remember when it happened. So happy you did this video. The collection is (was) stunning and to be honest, inspired my inner maximalist to come out !

Thank you Luke for your amazing and very informative video.❤ I really appreciate the work you put in your videos.❤ From a style perspective (not the villain perspective) all these men are very handsome and elegant. 💜

Literally I haven’t even started the video yet but like and comment because I am so FREAKING EXCITED that you are doing this show I have been hanging out for this ever since you mentioned it 🤩

I'm an 80s gal from Toronto Canada and a long time lover of the show Fashion Television hosted by Jeannie Bekker. She was the queen of fashion and arts media long before the internet. You have a different approach but like Jeannie you do your homework. Impressive. Thank you.

David Hicks was a genius whose work is still reference today- see Johnathan Adler’s work.

LUKE!! so excellent. Your presentation on this show is the most intriguing you've ever done...with the Maison Margiela show review coming in a very hot second . Thanks for all the sharp analysis and your particular sassy style of communication. Delightful!

Willem Defoe looked like a count. Just so cool. Love Gary Oldman how he carries himself! We need more models like him, i mean agewise and self confidence-wise. This whole collection just makes me realize, that menswear can be so interesting too, why don't they wear it like this anymore? But I'm sorry, noone can take Nr. 1. away from Adrian Brody, I love that man and he looks cool es heck in that outfit, I just can't!!!!!

I noticed a lot of early menswear vintage was the use of combing brown and grey colors. Love how that is referenced here. When Miuccia does classic modernism, she nails it. This is my favorite collection since her F/W 2001 collection.

When I tell you this was so fun... so exciting... so interesting... I really mean it. Luke, if you can hear me, I want to tell you I enjoyed this more than any of your previous reviews. I enjoyed that you enjoyed this. I got excited when you got excited about Whelm DeFoe. This was great!!! Thank you! I would loveore of this from you!

Long time viewer, first time commenter. Thank you Luke, possibly the best video I’ve seen by you, Grazie, Amen and Applause to you.

such beautiful coats! I love the patterns and colors.

I saw a clip of this on shorts and I WAS IN LOVEEEEEE😊❤

Thank you ...exemplory research, I laud you.

Gaddamn Luke I need that T-shirt!!!!

I love your new Intro music ✨❤

This was such a fun video! Loved the deepdive. Can you maybe do a video on great fashion books. I'm looking to make my fashion book collection a bit bigger..

I love this show down mostly for the 10-second clip I saw, but that was everything ❤️

I've seen Brody in preview and i was like... COUNT ME IN!

When I saw the carpet it immediately reminded me of an old Arabic pattern you can search Sadu Fabric Design - Geometric Pattern and other variations of it and you can see the heavy resemblance

Luke - one of your best! Thank you

This was fantastic 👏 👌 🙌 🙇‍♂️

you can find this motifs on romanian traditional carpets too :) actually, these geometric shapes can be find in almost every culture around the globe, symbolizing -for example- the tree of life, fertility, growth

lol didn't realize it's from 2012. no wonder there's Emile Hirsch. he was everywhere around that time.

WOW! You did a lot of research. Good job. One comment on that four portrait shirt. That last profile looks more like a Roman Gladiator to me.
