Prada Spring Summer 1998 Runway Silk and Latex Top
Brand: Prada
Designer: Miuccia Prada
Collection / Year: Spring Summer 1998
Material: Silk and latex
Made in Italy
From Prada’s Spring Summer 1998 collection by Miuccia Prada. The collection paired clean, feminine silhouettes with unexpected materials and finishes, combining elements such as silk, linen, rubber and velcro in a way that disrupted more traditional ideas of luxury.
This rare top was featured on both the runway and in the campaign. It is constructed from pale silk with a sheer latex upper section, creating the illusion of a strapless bustier against the body. Contrasting red stitching traces the shaped bust and vertical seams, emphasising the lingerie-inspired construction.
An exceptional and highly collectible piece from one of Prada’s most recognisable collections.
