2013 Prada Menswear

Prada has always been known for their sleekness, simplicity, attention to detail and most importantly, elegance. Men and women alike would wrestle a bear to get their hands on the new Prada collection to add to their wardrobes, it’s just that pristine. In the 2013 spring summer collection Prada sets the scene for a new focus in its visual menswear story.

Prada has enlisted the help of four leading men, two of them well known starts and the other two fresh and fantastic upcoming talents to add new individual style to their Spring/Summer 2013 menswear campaign. The stars Dane DeHaan known gor Chronicle, Benicio Del Toro of The Usual Suspects, Harvey Keitel of Taxi Driver and Reservoir Dogs and Aaron Taylor-Johnson from Savages have created a Prada campaign to be remembered. 

The images are black and white stills of the actors dressed in all Prada and looking as devilish as their characters have let us believed they are. All the way from their sharp suits to their men’s designer shoes every star looks a million dollars, just as Prada intended.

The Benefits Of Wearing The Right Size Bra

When it comes to buying a bra, you need to make sure you are purchasing the right size for you. A wrong fitting bra could be uncomfortable and may also cause you problems. When looking for a new bra, it is important to consider the style and design but also the sizing and shape of the item. Any lingerie expert will tell you that getting a bra fitting is vital to your posture, body shape and possibly your health.

 

A lot of women out there are wearing the wrong bra size, could you be one of those women? Here are just some of the benefits to wearing a well fitted bra.

  • Posture – A quality bra that fits well will help you with your posture. Slouching and not sitting up straight can be caused by a bad bra.
  • Body Shape – Wearing the right size will help to create a much better shape for your body. A good quality bra will give your chest a lift and help to create a much better body shape.
  • Tightness – If you are wearing a bra that is too small, then this could be digging into your chest and shoulders and causing you pain. If you feel your bra is too tight, then you will need to go up a size.
  • Too loose – A bra that is too big will not give the right support to your chest. If you find your straps are falling down often or that your band is not fitting well, a smaller bra size may be needed.

There are also many different styles of bras available. Full cup, balconette, minimiser, multiway, plunge, strapless, seam free, under wired and non wired. Each one offers a different style and shape. Choosing one that fits your silhouette well will help with finding one that is the most comfortable for you to wear.

If you are thinking about purchasing a new bra, choose a good lingerie boutique who will be able to measure and fit you for the right size, shape and style of bra. A well fitting, good quality bra could make all the difference to your comfort and posture.
