I was able to catch the newly installed Schiaparelli-Prada “Impossible Conversations” exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Saturday! Yea, no 7 hour line wait like my last experience there for the McQueen show. Thank GAWD!!! Just a few nights behind the famous star attended Met Gala, we could still see flowers from the gala placed around the museum starting to shows signs of wilt. A video through out the installation with Miuccia Prada and an Elsa Schiaparelli look alike (played by Judy Davis) sitting at a long contemporary dinner table end to end conversating to one anther about their lives, inspirations, and love for one another’s work and lifestyle! The show was a definite tail to how the two have very similar aesthetics, with Prada and Schiaparelli pieces and looks shown side by side throughout.. you could often not tell the difference. Amazing.
Not as dramatic and played out as the McQueen exhibit, but a must see for sure, especially if your a fashion person of interest.
My buddy Patrick was my date for the afternoon!
other random photos…. Guess that’s how they do it in the East Village!
Barneys window… too bad you can’t see the wind affect going on here!
