By Nick Byam
MR PORTER has teamed up with luxury Italian fashion house PRADA to launch an exlusive capsule collection rooted in bowling nostalgia.
The new collaboration marks PRADA’s first menswear that is exlusive with an online retail partner.
The collection, which debuted on MR PORTER last Wednesday (April 25), consits of 32 pieces including clothing and shoes and draws inspiration from eras of bowling popularity – the 1950s and 1980s.
It features camp-collar shirts in Hawaiian and pop-cartoon prints, madras and gingham checks, mid-century-style block-panelled stripe cardigans and stripe knit T-shirts, blouson jackets in satin and suede and two printed T-shirts with exclusive PRADA bowling logos, both referencing the eras of inspiration.
Pleated and flat-front trousers, polo shirts and a mohair bi-colour wool blazer complete the ready-to-wear offering.
Loafers, creeper and captoe Derbies and cap-toe sneakers in nubuck and deer skin make up the exclusive offering of shoes.
This capsule collection is a joint vision of both PRADA and MR PORTER’s modern approach to classic men’s wear, with an injection of fun and function
Prices range from £260 to £2,450 and are availbe now at mrporter.com
