Prada is extremely directed in terms of communicating what they like and what they don't like. That is actually extremely pleasant because it clarifies very easily what you can do and what you need to do.
If I could ask Ken Lay one question right now, do you know what it would be? "Does the Devil really wear Prada?"
But I'm not crazy about the designers like Prada and Gucci. I hate going into designer stores.
I own one pair of Prada shoes. They make my feet hurt. . . It's not the shoes' fault; they are exquisitely made. I blame my feet. I've got my mother's feet.
Schiaparelli’s collaborations with Dali and Cocteau as well as Prada’s Fondazione Prada push art and fashion ever closer, in a direct, synergistic, and culturally redefining relationship.
It is interesting how fashion filters down and we discover in the "Devil Wears Prada" that we're all prey to trends, even if we think we are not.
Prada is something that should be so mundane, like clothes.
I would say there is no Prada woman. I'm interested in women in general. I don't have any kind of preference.
Because of the Prada name, I can do things that people normally would not care about in the culture. I can have an exhibit by some forgotten artist who I love, and because it's Prada, people will come see it.
I like what Proenza Schouler is doing. I also love the Miu Miu chunky embellished shoes and really like Prada as well.
I'd rather have Prada shoes than eat.
I'm a Prada freak and I think they have great eyewear. Even though I don't need glasses, I use them as a fashion accessory.
It seemed to me to be a parable of the exchange of goods, rather Marxist in some ways, in the new world of global forces. What the forgers do is write the brand name to try and change it, and it works! Loads of people buy fake Prada handbags, or Chanel sunglasses; they've been changed. They have been truly, really changed.
Everyone needs someone to tell them not to wear so much Prada.
Look at some of the most iconic pieces from Prada and Marni. Every time you pull them out, even if it's five years later, they're still iconic! And then your kids can wear them, and probably style them in a different way. Well-made prints age very well.
I'm happy with embellishment in a chunky Prada-esque way, but I'm not into sequins!
Science has yet to isolate the Godiva Chocolate or Prada gene, but that doesn't mean your weakness for pricey swag isn't woven into your DNA. According to a new study of identical twins, it's less TV ads or Labor Day sales that make you buy the things you do than the tastes and temperaments that are already part of you at birth.
If I walk on the street, if I go to a restaurant, people come to me and say: "Can we take a photo together? Can you give me your autograph?" They would bring their expensive Armani or Prada wallet to sign. Other people who are desperate show me a photo of their dead daughter and ask: Can you support me? I tell them: How can I? Morally, of course, I sympathize with you. But I cannot support you and you cannot support me. This is the condition of this society. We are separated.
