Diet Prada’s 5 best fashion critiques

Why you should already be following Diet Prada

If you haven’t been acquainted with the Insta-phenomenon @diet_prada, let us make an introduction. Diet Prada is an account run by a blogger duo whom have dedicated their feed to calling out the industry’s biggest faux pas, backed with evidence and a somewhat unbiased viewpoint. The sarcasm and humour of it all is what keeps us watching, like the Burn Book in Mean Girls. Here are a few of Diet Prada’s most valid entries:

Pat McGrath and Erdem

One of renowned makeup artist Pat McGrath’s gloss campaign teasers was a conversation between her and Naomi Campbell, exchanging messages over Insta DMs. Diet Prada weighs in and compares it to an Erdem and Nars ad, that looks awfully similar. The conversation between Naomi and Pat looked relatable and candid, and well…. let’s just say the guilty party had us cringing at “Hi Erdem!” 

Vogue Paris and Harper’s Bazaar US

Sometimes it really just is a coincidence, as shown by these two covers from Vogue Paris and Harper’s Bazaar US.  The covers featured two different, yet similar YSL ensembles, as modelled by two of fashion’s rising Gen Z starlets, Kaia Gerber and Kendall Jenner. We call it a draw, and I think it’s safe to say these two covers are probably something the girls laugh about together. 

Off-White and 3.1 Phillip Lim

“A low blow” c/o Virgil Abloh – Off-White was called out for creating a bag that is pretty undeniably similar to Phillip Lim’s Alix bag. A gentle reminder that fame by numbers doesn’t mean you’re exempt from stealing intellectual property. Mr.Phillip Lim, you DID hit it first.  

Rihanna and Kim K

A classic tulle frock showdown. Rihanna was seen sporting this decadent Molly Goddard gown with white sneakers and the most IDGAF sunglasses, on a Tuesday. The right shows Kim Kardashian in a Virgil Abloh design. Diet Prada insinuates both looks were derived from a Mugler reference, but my opinion? Kim may be the perfect muse, but Rihanna has been and always will be fresh off the runway. 

Dolce and Gabbana

Dolce and Gabbana has been making strides to get Gen Z on board with its extravagant aesthetic. The duo has gotten flack in the past for misjudged designs trying to poke fun at political justice, but this most recent incident had Diet Prada riled up. In a more lengthy caption than usual, they offer a different perspective to the situation to give the industry a wake-up call: no matter the intention, it should be about inclusion, not exclusion.
