ooooh Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations ia opening May 10th at The Met! Found these rad Schiaparelli collages by http://swallowglitter.blogspot.com.au/

“The Met’s latest Costume Institute exhibition, open to the public on May 10, explores the striking affinities between Elsa Schiaparelli and Miuccia Prada, two Italian designers from different eras. Inspired by Miguel Covarrubias’s “Impossible Interviews” for Vanity Fair in the 1930s, the exhibition features fictive conversations between these iconic women to suggest new readings of their most innovative work. Iconic ensembles will be presented with videos of simulated conversations between Schiaparelli and Prada directed by Baz Luhrmann, focusing on how both women explore similar themes in their work through very different approaches.”
