- “Proper, frankly unsexy wares.” (AP)
- “Prada was obviously having a Hollywood moment, straight from a 1940s production.” (Daily Front Row)
- “Curiously, today’s Miu Miu collection had a strong feel of its ‘older sister coach bags,’ Prada; while the Prada collection, shown during the recent Milan Fashion Week, had had echoes of Miu Miu.” (The Daily Telegraph)
- “A grown up little-girl-lost.” (ELLEuk.com)
- “A ’40s-inspired collection that was given a dose of modernity in the way of floral or bird print wrap dresses paired with tilted baseball caps and glittery platform heels.” (FabSugar)
- “While it obviously referenced ’40s glamour, it was the most modern collection of all in terms of silhouette and line.” (Fashion Wire Daily)
- “Vintage but not retro.” (FashionEtc.com)
- “If Miuccia Prada had outfitted Madonna for her role as Mae Mordabito in ’A League of Their Own,’ it would look exactly Miu Miu fall 2011.” (Fashionista)

- “It was languid and alluring, full of fresh new ideas for the new generation Hollywood chicks in the front row.” (Vogue.com UK)
- “Made for an engaging riposte to her main show in Milan. Instead of aiming for girlish innocence as she did there, chez Miu Miu, Prada set her sights on a more grown-up tack.” (WWD)
Fall 2011 Fashion Week
- “A lush selection of flowing gowns ready for red-carpet duty.” (AFP)

- “The Lebanese designer makes perfectly fine clothes, but his insistence on turning his runway presentation into a catalog shoot dilutes his message.” (Style.com)

- “Certainly the timing of this collection, at the end of the Paris shows, could not have been stranger. My guess is it was a clever provocation.” (The New York Times)
- “Sreamed live, tweeted live-er and consumed instantly by millions — even billions — worldwide, fashion has become the ultimate voyeuristic pursuit. Was that what inspired Marc Jacobs to explore the fetishist — and, indeed, feti-chic — side of Louis Vuitton for Autumn/Winter 2011?” (SHOWstudio.com)
- “We know of very few designers who can simultaneously pump out the product — in this case, many multi-thousand-dollar luxury handbags — and provoke like Jacobs can.” (Style.com)
- “Even when a pretty ‘conversational-print,’ schoolgirlish forties-type dress came out, the cute pose of the model, with both hands behind her back coach bags, was actually a result of her wrists being handcuffed together while displaying her particular Lockit.” (Vogue.com)
- “Subversive innocence personified.” (Vogue.com UK)
- “Obsession, and irony, too. What’s not to love about fashion?” (WWD)
Latex and sky-high heels. Sound slightly familiar? If designers showing on the final day of Paris fashion week who missed the cut elsewhere in our 29-day 4-city style odyssey learned anything, it’s the power of second chances. Miuccia Prada changed up the girlishness on her Milan runway for Golden Age looks for Young Hollywood at Miu Miu, but Marc Jacobs ended it all with a bang for critics by sticking to his guns with the whole commodity feti-chic thing at Louis Vuitton. Another day, another Scorecard.
