Surrealist Fashion Film Promotions - Prada Animates 2008 Fall Collection (VIDEO)

In a unique promotional twist, Prada presented its Fall 2008 collection with “Fallen Shadows,” a very surreal, quaint and sedate animated short film which was screened in front of a very exclusive crowd in New York City on September 10th, 2008.

Vogue invokes the influence of giants of Surrealism in the making of this short film, displaying shades of Luis Buñuel, Salvador Dali and Marcel Duchamp throughout. I would also throw Belgian Surrealist master René Magritte’s dreamlike vision in the mix as well.
