THE Shoe and Sandal of the Season: Prada Spring 2014

Here's what THE one-and-only Suzy Menkes said of the Prada Spring 2014 collection:

"Interesting the dresses were: colorful and extraordinary, illuminated
not just by the bold faces printed digitally over the lower body of a
wool or fur coat, but also smothered in sequins, especially rhinestone
brassieres built in at the bosoms."

"With the vivid green, red, yellow and blue colors; the knee-high, sporty
leg warmers; and sometimes colored feathers in the hair, the effect was
tribal. But there was also an unexpected feeling of the 1980s and those
Vivienne Westwood external bras inspired by African women."
