With all the recent love for Mohair, mainly from the Italian brand Marni and their bright use of the material, this item is perfect for a fan of the complicated fabric blend. This six-button top is from the 2016 Fall/Winter collection and comes in a gorgeous maroon red with baby blue accents.

Prada's 2016 Fall/Winter collection was a masterful exploration of contrasts and dichotomies, seamlessly blending tradition with modernity. Drawing inspiration from the 1960s and 1970s, the collection paid homage to the era's eclectic mix of styles while incorporating contemporary aesthetics and the brand's signature elegance.

At the heart of the collection was the use of mohair, a luxurious, soft, and fuzzy fabric derived from the Angora goat. Mohair played a pivotal role in creating an enticing interplay between textures and imparting a sense of warmth and coziness. The tactile nature of mohair not only contributed to the collection's visual impact but also evoked a feeling of comfort and indulgence that resonated with the season's spirit.

The collection showcased a rich array of colours, from muted earth tones to vibrant jewel hues, which further emphasized the theme of contrast. Bold geometric prints, stripes, and patterns added a sense of depth and dimension, while the layering of textures, including fur, velvet, and leather, created a harmonious balance between softness and structure.

The fusion of masculine and feminine elements was another prominent feature in the collection, with tailored pantsuits, strong shoulder lines, and oversized coats paired with delicate blouses, pleated skirts, and embellished dresses. This juxtaposition highlighted Prada's ability to challenge conventional norms and celebrate the fluidity of fashion.
