Prada Sport A/W 1999 Utility Vest (38)

This impact that this era of Prada has had on garment design even 20 years on is sublime. Prada’s thinking was miles ahead of time as they were a pioneer in developing an intricate athleisure style mostly with industrial standard nylon not only through accessories but also using this design language to dress the whole body from dresses to utility vests . This pivotal time period of Prada saw how such a clean elegance can be delivered in harmony with technical and function driven garments. This conspicuous yet understated style acts as a reference for many designers today.

This vest is almost the same as look 51 of the womenswear runway show for that season where such a similar vest was rocked bare with sheer elegance.

This distinctively cut vest is paired with typical and perfect reflective strip detail on the rear to really highlight the special shape.

The utility belt allows to cinch the waist in a very flattering and graceful way unlike what you would expect from the average utility vest and those types of obvious yet overlooked detailing is the Prada difference.

Great general condition, just some light wear and some wear to the interior tags.
