Beaded bustier tank in linen
Prada • Spring-Summer 1998
-
For Prada’s SS 1998 collection, embellishment came in the form of glass beading, as seen here on this fitted bustier tank. Made entirely in blue-grey linen canvas, the top is dotted with misaligned rows of bugle beads in varying sizes, which catch light with each movement of the wearer.
Prada challenges preconceptions of bead embroidery as having to be dense, complete, and complicated, or executed only on sleek textiles. Rather irreverently, the beading here is intentionally sparse and spaced, with each set ending abruptly into steady lines of tonal thread.
