50's retro-glam was the theme for Miuccia Prada's Spring 2012 Runway. Automobile prints, flame motifs, midriffs and pencil/pleated skirts were seen throughout the collection. Such a sweet collection.
The roaring twenties and an art deco was quite apparent for the inspiration of Gucci's Spring 2012 collection. Instead of a plethora of colors and color blocking from previous collections, Gucci's creative director Frida Giannini's went with a darker palette of black, white, metallics with pops of emerald green and tangerines. Feminine yet androgynous.
