Fashion designer Miuccua Prada has revealed she is working on a collection of male skirts for ''revenge'', after a colleague tried to persuade her against the idea.
Miuccia Prada is designing another line of male skirts for 'revenge'. The renowned Italian designer - who works for Prada and heads her fashion forward sister company Miu Miu - says she is working on an updated version of her infamous leg-baring fashion trend to irritate a colleague. She explained: 'I'm working on a men's collection right now and someone at the office worriedly asked me, 'You're not going to make short skirts again, are you?' So I'm now pushing it even further, just for revenge!' The 60-year-old designer - who is the youngest granddaughter of the company's founder Mario Prada - adores working on unusual fashion styles because they stop her from being bored. She said: 'Menswear should take cues from womenswear, and not just the other way around. Menswear is so limited so I'm free with my ideas. Otherwise I'd die of boredom.' Miuccia - whose celebrity fans include Tilda Swinton, Victoria Beckham and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen - recently admitted she hates the 'cliches' associated with her work. She said: 'I hate the cliche of fashion designers since the beginning. And so because I came from another background - and actually being a feminist at those times, not that I've changed so much - I didn't want to do anything that fashion designers were doing.'
