Feathers and nostalgia add glam to Prada spring collection

By Giulia Segreti MILAN (Reuters) – Retro trenchcoats, feathered cuffs and brightly colored patterns hinting at the 1960s and 70s were among the highlights of Prada's spring/summer women's wear collection in Milan on Thursday. Last month it predicted a return to sales and profit growth next year, helped by improved sales trends in China, and there was plenty of variety in veteran designer Miuccia Prada's collection. Prada has said it is now trying to turn itself around by putting out more accessible products and slimming down its extensive retail network.
