Alright, let’s talk about this Prada denim playsuit thing. I remember seeing it pop up somewhere, maybe online scrolling late at night, you know how it is. First thought? “Huh, denim and Prada and a playsuit? Bit unusual.” Didn’t jump on it right away, obviously. Let’s be real, the price tag makes you think twice, maybe three times.
But it kinda stuck in my head. I kept thinking about the look – that sort of sturdy denim but with the fancy label. It felt different from the usual stuff. So, after mulling it over for ages, I finally decided to just go for it. Pulled the trigger. When it arrived, the packaging was nice, felt substantial. Unpacked it, and the denim itself felt really thick, good quality, not flimsy at all. You could feel it was well-made.
Trying it On
So, the moment of truth. Getting it on was okay, standard playsuit procedure. The denim was stiff, like proper raw-ish denim tends to be. Needed a bit of wearing to break in, I figured. The fit was… interesting. A bit snugger than I expected around the hips, maybe that’s just the cut. The little Prada triangle logo was there, subtle but definitely noticeable if you looked.
First Outing
Decided to wear it for a casual weekend thing, meeting friends for lunch. Felt a bit bold, honestly. It’s definitely a statement piece, not something you blend into the background with. Got a few looks, maybe a compliment or two, hard to tell sometimes. The main thing I noticed? Practicality. Or lack thereof.
- Going to the bathroom is a full commitment. You basically have to take the whole top part off. Not ideal, especially if you’re in a hurry.
- The stiffness meant sitting down felt a bit rigid initially. It did loosen up a tiny bit through the day, though.
Living With It
Washing it was nerve-wracking. Didn’t want it to shrink or lose that deep blue colour. Turned it inside out, cold wash, gentle cycle, hung it up to dry away from direct sun. Seemed to work out okay. Didn’t bleed colour everywhere, thankfully. Still feels sturdy.
So, the final verdict? It’s a cool piece, no doubt. Very specific look. Do I wear it all the time? Absolutely not. It’s more of a ‘mood’ piece, something for when I want to wear something different and feel a bit edgy, I guess. It’s definitely well-constructed, the denim is quality stuff. But you pay for the name, big time. And you have to accept the whole bathroom inconvenience. It’s not the most practical item in my wardrobe, far from it. But sometimes fashion isn’t about pure practicality, right? It’s still hanging in there, gets an outing now and then. Was it a totally sensible purchase? Probably not. Do I regret it? Nah, not really. It’s just one of those things.
