Fall 2004 Runway Prada Mink Trim Puffer Jacket

About the Item

From Fall 2004 is one of the most recognizable pieces from that collection. This is still known as one of her shining achievements and I doubt the peices and prints used in this collection will ever truly go out of style. The reviews were stellar. Style dot com said of this collection: Audiences always arrive at Prada shows tingling with anticipation, braced for Miuccia Prada's next departure from the last season's plot. This time, she confounded expectation again, not by taking off in a new direction, but by developing the cache of ideas layered into her spring collection...."It was a dream of extreme romanticism," she said. "The idea of eighteenth-century painting, with video games. A romanticism between past and future."....For colder months, she added more layers, adding in dip-dyed cable knits and buttonless cardigans betwixt tweeds and bejeweled fifties-style couture-like pieces. What held it all together, literally, were the cinched waists, circled in narrow grosgrain ribbon or with tie-on belts encrusted with sparkle. It was that idea of jeweling, on collars, belts, and fabric brooches, that added the news. In a brilliant leap, she transposed those crunchy patches of decoration onto fitted down jackets—a perfect conflation of old-world luxury with classic Prada techno fabric that stood as the symbol of the entire collection. The predominant print of that collection is seen here in shades of green on a techno puffer jacket cropped to the waist. On the runway this was shown belted over a skirt, elevating the puffer jacket to a whole new level. A luxurious mink collar is added at the neck but discreetly with it placed inside the collar rather then over it on the exterior as typical. It is very light and easy to wear and an iconic piece of Prada history. Excellent condition and appears unworn. Fully lined in black and closes with a hidden, chunky silver zipper and snap overlay. Elastic in each cuff and a nsap to tighten them if needed. Pockets on either side.
