Prada Men’s Fall 2012

I think this was the ultimate Fashion Oscars style. Movie stars, red carpet. Need I say more?

For its Fall 2012 menswear campaign, Prada has enlisted the prowess of such leading men as Gary Oldman, Garrett Hedlund, Jamie Bell, and Willem Dafoe to name a few. The runway Show with its East Berlin-esque military inspired collection garnered plenty of celebrity buzz. According to WWD, the star-studded close “had the laidback men’s pack roaring with applause.”

I look forward to more images from David Sims bold and cinematic new campaign. The label says “by layering codes of dress in a subtle parody of power and role-play” each is meant to portray a different archetype. Can you say roles?

What do you think of the brand’s latest casting coup? If you ask me Oscar worthy.
