Prada's Fall/Winter Mens collection ad campaign

So I caught a glimpse of the Prada' s Mens Ad Campaign the other day and thought, shit man. I need to do a post on this.

Being fronted by four famous actors, (two of which are my favourite). Gary Oldman, Jamie Bell, Garrett Hedlund, and William Defoe are the faces of the collection.


Looking at the collection,with  the images and the men's styling you are given a very old age military feel to it. I look at this and I think of old fashioned air force. I really like the double button waist coats, trench coats and the higher waist trousers on the younger men, it's a very classic image and very sophisticated. 

There is much pin stripe being used in the designs , along with some some prints which are quite small which Oldman and Defoe wear, the colour pallet is also very minimal. So the collection, has a delved a little into the 60's in this use of prints. 
If you note also, the photography is very interesting, the men are positioned in a way that Defoe is always by Garrett and Oldman is always pictured beside Bell. As is they mirror one another as older and younger versions of themselves, which is a very unusual and interesting idea for the campaigne in this way they can appeal to a older and younger audience. 

On a whole though it is a fantastically interesting and beautiful sophisticated campaign and I am extraordinarily, yet again impressed with Prada.
