Guest Post By Richard Gray: Nylon

Here Naomi wears a belted Prada dress from an advertising campaign in the 1990s. It was an exciting time when Mrs P had the perverted conceit that a utility fabric was a “designer” fabric, or rather it should be treated as such. At first it was black Nylon rucksacks then frocks and trousers and skirts. The belted pelmet skirts in black Nylon are incredible by the way. If you see one on eBay: grab it.
