Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations. Schiaparelli и Prada: Невозможные Беседы.

Elsa & Miuccia 

On February 24, the Metropolitan museum of Art hosted a press event in Milan to reveal an upcoming exhibition: Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations. Some objects selected for the exhibition were shown to the guests.

This exposition will take place from May 10 till August 19 in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and will present a selection of models from Elsa Schiaparelli and Miuccia Prada. It will include 90 sketches and 30 accessories created by Elsa from the 1920s to the 1950s and by Miuccia from the 1980s to the current day. This retrospective will be completed by a number of videos about two unusual women.

"A love for art and breaking the rules unite us,” says Prada. Two designers are known for their provocative ideas, as well as for their love to artistic movements: surrealism for Schiaparelli and contemporary art for Prada. Prada also added : "These are two such different periods that, honestly, I see more differences than similarities."
