• This is a variation on Look 52 that walked the runway for the Spring Prada 2004 show
• Made under the creative direction of Miuccia Prada
• Vogue said of this collection: "Over almost a decade of ground-breaking experimentalism, Miuccia Prada has explored everything from irony to deliberate ugliness to intellectual subversion. She’s been there, done that, and has the souvenirs to prove it. For Spring 2004, the designer turned her attention to the stiffest fashion challenge of the day: how to make feminine, happily nostalgic clothes without rehashing the clichés of vintage?“ It was about tourism and craftsmanship, many things,” she said of a show that revisited the optimistic fifties to bring back a full set of densely packed suitcases." 
  
• The dress is made of of an ultra fine, ultra light cotton in a deep ivory.
• It is strapless and the fabric has been done in extremely fine pleats with embroidered edges on some of the pleats. These sweep across and around the bodice. One one side the pleats are hand tacked down in a line that curves down one side. On the other side of that tacking the pleats begin to open up to sweep downwards and start to form the skirt. 
• The skirt is made of five tiers of the cotton with attached under layers of silk and netting. This creates an extraordinarily beautiful  draping all the way down the skirt.
• The cotton is printed with an ultra fine pattern made of fine little dots to form tiny clusters of flowers. These cover the entire dress. It is extremely beautiful and has a very delicate and feminine feel.
• Inside there is a net and cupped bodice that is lightly boned for support.
• It closes with a back zipper. An inner waist stay hooks to close. The construction of the dress is a nod to the dresses of the 1950s and it is very beautifully done.

• The runway version did not have the gray underneath the chain metal so it was worn more as a tunic. When they added the grey silk band for the shops it allowed it to be worn as a mini dress
• Made from a pale pink crepe with a soft grey design printed over it that incorporates the word Prada on both the front and back
• The lower portion of the skirt is a pale grey stretch silk like fabric. A metal chain mail detailing goes around the top part of that lower skirt
• It has a high collar and the sleeves are long. Each sleeve is finished in a pale pink feather cuff.
• Pin-tuck detailing creates a very pretty and detailed finish at the front of the dress
• The fit through the body is more full and open much like a 1920s flapper dress
  
• It closes with a hidden set back zipper
• Tagged a modern Prada 40
• I see some teeny little marks on the grey silk and one tiny faint spot on the top of one shoulder. It has the slightest perfumey smell, otherwise in excellent condition.

This is a fantastic little Prada top from the Fall 2000 collection and we have added both the runway shot and the ad campaign shot of the dress from that season that has the same cut through the bodice so that you can see how gorgeous it is on.

The top made out of a gold tone silk that is a beautifully light in weight. It is very soft and supple and just glides over you once it is on. I love that it is lined in a matching coloured silk organza. The organza lets it stay very light in weight but feels beautiful once on the body. The straps twist and curve up and over the shoulders. They are caught up with a little band of silk at the front and then the front plunges into a V. Little pleats are gathered into two sewn rows just above a muted gold grosgrain ribbon that is attached all the way around the waist. Under the ribbon it has a little peplum that flares out slightly. The back is phenomenal. The straps twist until they meet the back and then they extend down in that same twisting way to edge the low scoop of the back. This leaves your entire back there and open. It is so pretty. Excellent condition with a small note below

Fully lined in a matching silk organza and closes at the side with a hidden set zipper. I see a tiny bit of a pull in the fabric near the edge of the top stitching and here and there. Tagged a vintage Prada 40.
