Prada Spring ’09

Prada Spring ’09

Jew­elry, that is…what were you think­ing? All those open neck­lines and bare arms leave the imag­i­na­tion open to sug­ges­tion. Mrs. Prada, who I have read is an avid col­lec­tor of jew­elry, gave us a gor­geous frame­work — per­haps delib­er­ately, per­haps not. How­ever, we can cer­tainly take licen­tious license, may we not? I’ve selected a cou­ple of fab­u­lous notions from Kentshire Gal­leries in New York. I love the warmth of tex­tured gold for sum­mer, and the color of a sat­u­rated gem­stone paired with bright yel­low metal inten­si­fies the heat. If you employ them with these ensem­bles, that will set the world afire. Pass me a fan.
