It was the last day at The Met for The Prada X Schiaparelli exhibit,
so I strapped on baby fresh and off we went to the museum. What a genius idea to imagine a conversation
between Prada and Schiaparelli, whose styles I never knew were so similar
before this exhibit. The juxtaposition
of the pieces was perfect; one would think they were designed together if you
didn't know better. And though it
sounds like the latest Luther Campbell song, Neck Up/Knees Down is a reference
to each designers design concentration. Schiaparelli’s
Neck Up approach focused on accessories, wanting to show drama near the face, while
The Knees Down approach that Prada prefers highlights fanciful hems and
fantastic shoes. Check out my covertly
taken pics (SHHH!), and if you missed the exhibit you can buy the book here.
