Camouflage Collection for Fall 2010 by Prada

Military chic is all the rage for the Fall season, which has inspired Prada to create their new handbag line for the season to come. Personally I would have never imagined that one day world renowned fashion designers would be inspired to make their goods out of the globally recognizable prints of camouflage. The first to present these unexpected designs was the House of Vuitton with the collaboration of Takashi Murakami when they revealed to the world the Monogramouflage line.

Whether you believe it or not, the items became a hit instantly, which is proved by affection of celebrities to the idea. Now another fashion brand, I mean Prada, joins to the military concept. It may turn into a new trend for fall 2010, who knows. As part of the collection Prada designers offer several different styles, with some of them in 3 different camouflage color variations.

In the collection presented by Prada you can see Saffiano Camouflage Tote that is made of sturdy calfskin perfect for everyday wear. The tote is 17″ wide X 14″ high X 7″ deep, it features a 4½” double top handle and a 9″-12″ detachable shoulder strap. Saffiano Camouflage Tote is fully lined with signature jacquard, it sports metal feet, snap closure, two inside zippers, two open pockets.

The tote bag looks quite interesting. This tote is not too military yet it is perfectly styled to sport camouflage with the rigid shape. The handle proportions are just right - feminine and ladylike so you can wear this with your flouncy as well as sporty. It is still quite specific and obviously trendy but it is really pricey. You can purchase it via the Internet for $2,495.

Well, I cannot say that I am thrilled by the trend, I do not think that military camouflage can be chic anyway. And what do you think?
