Look out for Prada Candy, the latest fragrance from Prada, which will hit beauty counters next month (September 2011).
Prada Candy is a dramatic departure from the brand’s existing stable of scents, which began in 2005 with Amber for women, and has since featured a series of “Infusions” inspired by a single flower. Here’s the official description of Prada Candy – Prada Candy is instantly seductive – pure pleasure wrapped in impulsive charm. In an explosion of shocking pink and gold, Prada Candy takes us on a walk on the wild side, showing us a new facet of Prada femininity where more is more and excess is everything.
In an interview, provided by Prada, perfumer Daniela Andrier explained how the fragrance reflects the well-known brand. According to her, “Prada fashion can have very strong colours, incredible shoes, everything exaggerated and, still, by an amazing miracle, not be too much … When you smell Prada Candy, it’s not overpowering. It’s a way of making things look just right, but not in a compromised way. Our world is dictated by compromise, but Prada Candy is about exaggeration. It has a revolutionary spirit.”

Later this year, Prada will reportedly debut a new sub-collection called ‘Made In…‘ inspired by Miuccia Prada’s grandfather, Mario, “who traveled, like the connoisseur he was, to every corner of the globe in the early 20th century to find the world’s most authentic items.”
Made In… will reportedly feature and include handmade items such as ballet flats, tartan prints, and alpaca wool – all sourced from their countries they were inspired by (India, Scotland, and Peru, respectively). There will even be some Japanese-made denim in the mix. Made In… seemingly marks a turning point in fashion’s collective discourse, with fashion production fast becoming a global process, what with increased consumer interest in where exactly the fabrics that make the clothing actually come from.
Popular American rap artiste T.I. wears Prada. He reportedly said “I Do” to his long-time love “Tiny” at a Miami beach courthouse on Friday, July 30, and later celebrated with a fairytale style romantic wedding on the exclusive island and celebrity playground Star Island on Saturday, July 31. Both the bride and groom reportedly arrived in style, as they rode in a horse-drawn carriage dressed in white. T.I. was wearing a custom-made Prada tuxedo.
