You’ll never see Miuccia Prada on Twitter, because she thinks that it´s crap! The label received some criticism lately for its “stodgy” web strategy in the face of labels like Burberry, who have embraced Facebook and have developed a Sartorialist-like website, Art Of The Trench, featuring people wearing its coats. But Miuccia, strong and powerful as always, doesn’t change her plans!
