Prada Fall 2003 Dress
This grey wool-and-mohair dress is from Prada’s Fall 2003 collection. Crafted from soft, black and white flecked tweed - a fabric traditionally associated with utility - the dress features ornamental appliqué detailing. The dress has an elegant slash-neck and back of the dress is crafted from black satin. The front slit is lined with black grosgain, and a large tab at the neck is formed from the same fabric. There is a pretty, appliqué grosgrain rose, detailed with glistening bugle beads, that sits atop the left hip.
As Vogue observed, "Part of this collection’s genius is that it has continuity and ingenuity: all the hallmarks of Miuccia Prada's talent are on show… Visually and intellectually, this is a collection that hit the high notes."
