Miuccia’s World

December 14, 2013January 6, 2024 | Design & Culture by Ed

Everything done by Miuccia Prada works on me. Her SS14 collection for Prada was the best collection of the season! Art, fashion and women power was never so linked together as now, when Prada’s theme of the collection are crystals, fur and prints… I was just on the press day of Prada’s SS14 accessories, and I should say, I am mesmerized. The nerdish sandals never looked so good. And then heels? Oh My Prada God. These acidic colours were so amazing! The Resort 2014 inspired with Hawaii is also a piece of art- everything is so embroidered and fragile. My favourite is the red floral dress… Great for every occasion! In other words, Prada nailed it this season. As always.

Berlin: Celine

Celine’s Phoebe Philo Resort 2014 collection got us all… Lost. The collection itself looks amazing on the models, but some elements are simply disturbing- the 70’s inspired astronaut belts on trousers and shirt; plastic Birkenstocks that look like, well, plastic pool sandals; heavy, Earth colours that are hard to wear for Spring. Yesterday, seeing it all up close, I am amazed but at the same time shocked, what kind of strange fabrics were used here- polyester, polar, plastic, rubber… In Philo’s mind, the Celine woman for Resort is boho- wears it all loose and over-sized. And pretty not neat. But still, as always in case of Celine… I like it.

Berlin: Wood Wood

Wood Wood store in Berlin is a heaven for sneakers lovers. Really. You will find here all types of Air Max, Comme des Garcons X Converse, Gold Nikes and others under one roof! The stores is pretty big, with high shelves presenting coolest trainers on Earth. There are also some really cool printed socks and bags that perfectly match hyper hype shoes… And i simply couldn’t resist to not to buy Nike Air 180 German Edition with camouflage print on the sides. Soon I will post them too! This place is for all shoe-maniacs like me!

Berlin: Acne Studios

Acne is a Swedish label known for great denim, jackets and shoes that are always kept in a sporty but chic way. The Munzstrasse boutique of Acne Studios is a tiny space that has an amazing installation on the celling ( I think it’s a light bulb spider!) and a lightly constructed, pastel pink table on which the clothes are kept. My favourite piece was the AW13 shirt with this artsy print on… The Berliner style is just up here!

Berlin: Andreas Murkudis

Andreas Murkudis store in Berlin is definitely not the one that you will find in a shopping guide. I found this place thanks to Instagram, and I am really happy that I was there! The store is located not directly on the street, but in a stone house center. The walls there are pale white with neon lights all over the place. Labels like Celine, Margiela, Dries Van Noten, Kolor and Aesop are all in this huge space! And by the way… Not on perhaps, I arrived at an amazing fashion show of young, Berlin based designers, who were all here because of Woolmark reward! The gowns, sweaters and everything there was so out of this world… Just have a look at this very artistic world located in one store on Potsdamstrasse 81E.
