We agree!

re what you were saying about how the space you're self isolating in becomes sort of not real - ages ago there was a tv show in the UK called 'art club' where artist grayson perry asked members of the public to submit art to a real exhibition inspired by quarantine. and one episode was about 'home'. they had an architect kevin mccloud make a piece of art and he said when you stay inside your four walls, your concept of 'home' starts to shrink to just those walls, whereas if you have the freedom to go outside, you can extend your idea of home everywhere else. so self isolation is a uniquely surreal experience because you are having to transform your idea of 'home' very drastically

I spend so much time alone in my room/workspace and sometimes I lose the feeling of the space, I can see things completely different than what they are they’re like images I create around me so this Prada set up and Bliss’ analysis of space becoming unreal resonates with me so well. Thank for sharing this information I will look up the show art club

Holy cow Bliss is speed and even invite Raf to explain the collection for us

not even 24 hours since the show premiered and this man already had a full analysis out

Yes indeed, very impressive!

So strong！Raf and Miuccia compensate each other like Ying&Yang! I enjoined even more Prada’s show since Raf’s arrival

Bliss I'm enjoying the serial killer, English teacher, Beatles enthusiast look. SWAG it up Playa.

He had me at 'Dad Raf and grandmama Miuccia' You have my loyalty to your channel sir.

Also, the triangle cuts under the collar of jackets and coats are such cool “branding.” Incredible show!

He took “please don’t touch my raf” to a new level

You might be interested into the concept of liminal space. Also, as a huge Techno fan I just love how you described the feeling associated with it.

I personally think that both raf and muccia are still figuring out how to work together and to have their ideas blend smoothly. That being said im very optimistic for upcoming collections!

It's like Raf and Miuccia almost directed a short film for Prada with this collection. It doesn't seem like the focal point is on the clothesyet the clothes create/add to this space around them. It's beautiful and stark.

I think the pajama look also linking the to way we have been spending quarantine wearing a lot of lounge/lazy wear!

Bliss thank you I’ve gotten into fashion recently I’ve only picked it up about 6 months ago and I haven’t stopped researching since mainly because of you and you have taught me so much and I really appreciate that

Welcome to the world of fashion!

Amazing Bliss, so good, thank you!

Woow, I love how deep you go !

I can actually feel the plush carpet walls. It’s all about the textures however you are right , there is a sense of entrapment It’s so reminiscent of his Dior shows when it comes to the grandiosity of the set! I am obsessing about the glovepurse, new prints and knits! But most all, the marriage of Raf and Muccia elements is so exciting! * I was waiting for your Prada dance , Bliss!

Nice, impressive turn around from show to analysis

Thank youu!! I found out about so many details I haven't reflected upon yet

The Logo was the first thing I noticed and I like it. It's a nice change.

that model look suits you amazing tbh, loved it

please keep doing these analysis !!

I totally agree with your interpretation of the set but I wanted to add that all of Prada’s runways are designed in collaboration with the architect Rem Koolhaas and his firm OMA and they had this to say on their website “The design draws on the idea of the passage of time. A sequence of spaces evokes different intimate moments experienced throughout the day: a voluptuous night, a mellow morning, or a lazy afternoon.”

I like your haircut bliss👍🏾 another good video too.

One thing I noticed about the logo as well, was that they incorporated this triangle shape in some of the coats at the top of the chest! The V cuts and the neck strap created this triangle and it was accented beautifully with the loud colors of the shirt the models were wearing underneath. The placement of the triangle almost seems like a nod to the women's collection that was presented some months ago! Really loved the show!!

Yea they definitely hit some strong points here. While they may have not been this new found design period they still have things you can take away like the color scheme obviously we all noticed the knit triangles on the back with the colors and still recognizing RAFs designs. At the end of the day this is just one piece of a puzzle to a larger picture out here in the real world

Great thoughts on the set design, also made me think of end of twin peaks

I was thinking that it reminded me of the Dior show, and then you mentioned it the colors and strange rooms reminded me of the movie Clockwork Orange,

Amazing video

I totally share your point of view, really think they got the Zeitgeist on point.

Nice review

Great vid！For me at least i also think that the show is Prada’s attempt at implying a way that the human body can interact with garments and spaces. Usually a show at a regular runway would be stage in a relatively large space, but in this show, the models are actually walking through spaces small enough for the viewers to immediately recognize as rooms. Considering the fact that most of us will, in fact, stay in quarantine for another couple of months, brands need to find way to suggest that we as consumer can buy garments even if we are staying indoors and most likely by ourselves.

this was great

Thats funny, yes all of my fashion nerdom is on the internet, but my office with my sewing maching, and sketches I get to be surrounded by my love of fashion

The set definitely reminds me of 'The Shining' film

Ive found Rafs Prada shows thus far underwhelming - to me they seem like a mishmash of ideas weve all seen before from him. Contributing to this is the fact that it feels like we lost the old Prada. I would have preferred that he stays at his own brand and wwe get to see more of Miuccias vision.

@rm6700

Exactly. I really think someone (some say van Ommeslaeghe) from Raf’s team who had a profound impact in making Raf’s output very cutting edge and refined quit early on during the Dior period. That’s why we’re seeing this rehash of very old ideas and outdated silhouettes since Raf doesn’t really bring anything substantial to the table. This collection is old ideas wrapped with such pretentious intellectual rambling during the post show talk. As for old Prada, I don’t really see it coming back, and I’m very sad about that. People say it was Manuela Pavesi who challenged and edited Miuccia to create the groundbreaking collections of yesteryear. Notice when she passed away, Prada never felt like Prada. Explaining inspirations and contexts of this collection doesn’t make it a good collection.

sick!

Omg I was asleep during the first hour of the video 😂😂 sorry Bliss

Gerat video

I think this show was full of irony... In a good way... kind of. Starting by the setting and the overproduced filmmaking and shoots that in my opinion continued the “vintage tv show” aesthetic wee saw last season, almost in a Lynchian way, enfasicing the texture and a funky but surprisingly beautiful palette, (again very Lynchian), which for the whole time I had the “black lodge” feel, of a surreal, detached place, where aesthetics are above of all comprehensible or grounded meaning. The fact that Miucca and Raf sat down and talked about the show last season, in the purest tv interview format, reinforces my opinion in them tacking advantage of having a relatively or once “independent designer” working for a global luxury brand, again all this as a satire not tho themselves but to the whole fashion industry. Last but not least, about the clothes, I feel that the big in your face logos from SS21 were the first obvious reference in the irony matter, emphasizing their inusability, appropriating it, and taking advantage of it. This is a very Raf’s thing to do if you ask me. I’m the AW21 wee can see this pockets directly in the gloves, which enlaces that ideal of sarcasm and unusable aspects of the garment for the very sake of making a statement with it, again a very Raf’s thing to do. Definitely not mi favorite runway but I think Miuccia and Raf are really trying here, let’s see how both (mature designers) mature this co-creation in further seasons.

yes, please!

Love your hair in this lol

is it just me or does the whole idea of models constantly moving within the same rooms also just in the most literal sense present how we at home are doing the same? i get the whole nightmare thing but doesn't the rooms maybe represent how we are all moving from room to room trying to find new space but never really doing so?

I saw some parallels with the iamamiwhoami kin audiovisual album, not sure if it was intentional or not. Furry textures, claustrophobic blank boxy rooms vs expansive spaces, dancing alone - these are all themes through several of the videos. Specifically Sever and Goods are both examples worth checking out for this purpose but the whole series is amazing.

I think that the scenery could be a reference non Euclidean spaces and geometry given the feeling that in isolation you can feel as if you’re walking in circles

He had exactly the same hair on the set of this video

Notice how pieces of music from 205W39NYC fw19 and ss20 were incorporated into the soundtrack? Raf did this also in his first Raf show following his dismissal (my words) from CK, using music from his first 205 show in the soundtrack. I'm also noticing how the set in this Prada show can perhaps reflect these past 205 seasons. The purple wall reminds me of the video screen from ss20 and the white carpet reminds me of the popcorn floor from fw19. To me (thus far) Raf's Prada work has been an example of what we could've got at 205 if he woulda been allowed to grow there. I just don't think an American brand was ready for what he had to offer, which is a shame because 205 have been some of my favorite collections in the last 10 years.

I’ve done two! Off White: kzread.info/dash/bejne/iIZtwdWgiq-3Yso.html And his first show at LV: kzread.info/dash/bejne/i6NkxsytdcjImKg.html

I’m intrigued by the RAF and Prada collab… but these past couple collections have been pretty….meh. I’m trying to really read between the lines in the collection but it just feels like if falls flat. It’s wayyyyyy too much of a dilution of RAF’s menswear collection(s) for the last 3 seasons or so - oversized jackets, prints head-to-toe, sleeves scootched up the sleeve, etc. I DID love the volume in the coats though, that seems to be following many of the other houses for fall…. The genius in the show was in the odd shifting of room to room, jump cuts of the model that actually shows the pieces more… that I DID love that and the uniformity of the collection… I just would have loved to see more variety…. The opposite of this would be the collection Marc Jacobs did a while back of his ‘uniform’ with all the models in the same wig, lots of pockets, stiff material, and LOTS of epaulets and variation of proportions in the separates…. What I’m hoping for is after year 5, the collections will diffuse more from only RAF’s thinking and mixing more with Prada. I’m sure things will get better in time. The pocket gloves were fierce though. I want some of those asap. … the goofy dancing was ‘interesting’ lol lot of white people dancing nonsense.

just like that huh
