Prada.com

Prada.com is a very interesting website. I think fashion is a very interesting thing. It's amazing to me how people can love what they're wearing and then ten years later think it's absolutely hideous. It's also interesting how many people don't like all the newest fashions that come out in europe but then when they come to America a few years later, everyone is wearing them. 

Some of the things I saw in these pictures really surprised me. I thought there would be a lot more sexually-related pictures. In some of them the models weren't completely covered up, but I wouldn't consider them sexual at all. Some of their clothing styles were appealing but some of them weren't at all. And all of the female models' hairstyles were hideous. I did like how some of the male models had their hair, however. 

The colors in the pictures were mostly very dark. From the background to the clothes they wore to the makeup they had on. I think the main purpose of this was that all the models had very pale white skin and blonde hair. This created an interesting contrast that made the pictures stand out. The models also never smiled. They almost looked angry, but I think that was also part of the effect and to show personality. 

I think a lot of modeling and fashion is just to be different and to make yourself and clothes stand out. I think this is a big factor in the designs changing so often. Once everyone starts to wear the same styles then people want to change to be different and express their selves in their clothing and styles.
