Prada presents May Issue, an exclusive capsule collection of ready-to-wear, bags, accessories and jewellery. For women, denim garments, poplin and Re-Nylon dresses and shirts and a selection of terry garments, bags and accessories all recall the romantic elegance of 1950s summers. The Cleo Bag is joined by more practical silhouettes with contemporary appeal, such as the Pocket bag – made from an original mix of materials – a brushed leather mini bag and raffia tote bags with an embroidered lettering logo. The men’s selection features denim ensembles, printed shirts, Re-Nylon garments and woollen knitwear, calf leather and canvas bags and shopping bags and hats made of drill and denim. The May Issue collection is depicted in photographs that highlight their graphic forms and soft lines. The constant juxtaposition of negative space and macro-style close-ups gives rise to a series of contrasts that bring out the items’ pure and sculptural design.
