Jennifer Gosnell — June 25, 2012 — Luxury
The Prada Menswear Fall 2012 collection is modeled by Gary Oldman, Garrett Hedlund, Jamie Bell and Willem Dafoe, and features a beautifully steampunk vibe. With an array of rich fabrics, colors and textures, the collection is a marriage of past and present for men's fashion. Re-introducing the concept of the cape, classic trenches and luxuriously detailed double-breasted jackets, the Prada collection is a standout for it's incredibly ornate construction.
With modern-day riding glasses and the re-introduction of other classics straight out of the remade Guy Richie Sherlock Holmes series, this men's collection is a great way to shake up menswear and add some versatility that is often seen in women's collection, but neglected in men's. Using a palette of deep violets, rich burgundies and classic black the Prada Menswear Fall 2012 collection plays on a mix of new and old.
