As much as I'd like to add Prada's entire S/S 24 collection to my wardrobe, it's not possible. I'd consider myself lucky to get my hands on just one piece. On that note, if you're a Prada girl without an all-Prada budget, I'm here to offer support in the form of Prada-inspired spring shopping. The S/S 24 collection was chock-full of beautiful pieces contrasted with utilitarian ones. There were gauzy pastel dresses and colorful satin shoes alongside utility jackets and sharp-shoulder blazers, elegant cardigans alongside eye-catching metallic-fringe belts. All in all, there's a through line of '90s minimalism that's helped to form the current Prada look that's so wildly popular.
I did some spring shopping through this lens and found a curation of pieces that'll give you that current Prada look without the Prada price tag. Keep scrolling to shop for chic spring wardrobe builders along with me.
