Prada Fall Winter 2010 Ad Campaign

There's a sense of nostalgia looking at Prada's new Fall Winter 2010 Ad Campaign. Set in a club scene, with couples apparently getting pretty intimate with each other. Go back to those romantic, uncomplicated yesteryear which reminds you of the good old days in the fifties. However, they could have replaced that modern looking microphone with something more vintage for a more cohesive feel.

The women's series of ads gets presented in 'technicolour' while the men's series is in pure black and white. The camouflage print is clearly seen on the handbag on the 3rd ad, which is poised to be the key design accent for Prada's Fall Winter 2010 collection.

One thing amiss from these shots by Steven Meisel is that the whole group shot (especially from the coloured series) looked over posed and digitally put together. The woes of modern digital photography. We sometimes rely too much on technology and those charming 'imperfections' in traditional photography is lost.

ahaha, good eye on the mic! wish they had a billie holiday type in the ads as well. oh well, diversity takes a back seat. i notice that prada ads tend to be posy. i still like em though. :D
