Topman LTD Spring Summer 2012 versus Prada Spring Summer 2012
topman ltd, topman.com / prada editorial, dansk
i really like prada's illustrated shirt from spring summer 2012, but topman's version isn't too bad either. you can find topman's "tennis" shirt online here.
To be honest, as soon as I saw that Prada print I thought it looked like something old men with very questionable taste would stockpile in their wardrobes, which I guess is what Muccia wanted with the golfing theme for SS12. However, I think there are some far nicer pieces in the collection, the patterned polo shirts for example, so for me Topman looks pretty stupid making their own versions of the gross pieces from this collection!!
This is my favorite collection (with Tom Ford) for the season. I prefer the topman shirt because of the color maybe. If i buy the prada's one, i'll regret it in 2 seasons. But, to me, the statement pieces were the pants, the jackets and the brocade kind of studded-bling shirts. Here is some examples: -http://media.paperblog.fr/i/490/4906293/prada-spring-2012-menswear-3-L-WnwzXn.jpeghttp://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Yrj7WHULFfs/ToR_G-L4vgI/AAAAAAAAJJU/Wr9NIcV3QOY/s1600/prada5.jpg
I live in the south of France and i can't wait to go to Paris to buy some of those exquisite pieces =D

love the trousers really, the brocade jackets are nice too. hope you'll find the pieces in paris!
DeleteI think the Prada shirt is amazing. Playful, bold and hard to ignore.
ReplyDeleteBtw.. Why did you deleted the Alexander McQueen vs. Comme des Garcons (if I recall well) printed blazers?
