With business matters shunted aside, attention focused on the label’s Spring collections as models Arizona Muse, Fei Fei Sun, and Clement Chabernaud moseyed past front-row guests including actresses Gong Li and Maggie Cheung.

As always with Prada, glamour came in haute-culture garb. Among the other revelers packing the museum’s soaring atrium were top Chinese artists Xu Bing and 2010 Hugo Boss Prize finalist Cao Fei, as well as architects Yung Ho Chang and Ma Yansong. Even the entertainment was cast with a brainy bent. “They’re a great myth,” a beaming Miuccia Prada said of the Pet Shop Boys as Neil Tennant broke into “Suburbia” onstage. “They’re deep, pop intellectuals.”

Prom Dress Trend Cut it Short

On the hunt for a very fun and oh-so flirty look for Prom 2011? You'll love short Prom dresses! The trend is all the rage. When you hike up the hem you get to show off your great legs. Plus, it's so much easier to dance. Pair a short Prom dress with a pair of stilettos for a sexy look. To keep from looking underdressed for such a big night, avoid wearing a short dress that's too plain. Just because the hem is higher doesn't mean you can't bring on the bling!

For a super trendy look, go for a short skirt with layers of tulle edged at the hemline to form a circle of waves.

There's never been more choices of prom dresses cut short in plus sizes. Discover your fabric fabrics: satin, chiffon, and taffeta. And select from all the hot colors including pink, red, blue and yellow. You'll even find prints available in shorter skirts. Bows, feathers, sequins and rhinestones add just the right amount of dazzling detail.

After decades of seeing a sea of long formal dresses at Prom, you're sure to be ahead of the fashion curve wearing a skirt above - or at - your knee!

Prom Dress Trend Rosey Disposition

Rosey Disposition

Looking to make a dramatic fashion statement at Prom 2011? Wear a Prom dress embellished with floral rosettes. The trend, ripped right from the runway, adds an oh-so girly detail. Nothing is more feminine than flowers.

Rosey Disposition

The rosette detail adds a fresh 3-D look to what otherwise might just be a boring dress way too plain for a night as big as Prom. Rosettes work on an fabric from chiffon to taffeta and come in just one color or a combination of colors for an even stronger fashion statement.
You'll never know where a rosette will bud! This year the twirls of fabric fashioned into flowers are all the rage on straps of one-should dresses. But they don't stop there. Rosettes are also in full bloom on skirts and even trains to create a real red-carpet look coming and going.
Just because you're wearing a Prom dress decorated with rosettes, doesn't mean you have to give up fresh flowers. The trick is to pick a flower from Mother Nature that's simple and doesn't compete with fabric rose on your dress.

The dress that thinks it's a skirt and a top

When it comes to multi-functional fashion, doubling up my beach sarong as an evening top is as far as I've got.
But now Wolford has created the Fatal dress - a seamless tube of stretchy fabric also designed to be worn in multiple ways - and at £89, it's much more of a bargain.

So would it give me the sculpted curves of model Giselle or cling mockingly to every lump and bump?
Made of 93 per cent nylon and 7 per cent elastane, the Fatal comes in extra small, small and medium sizes (and 12 different colours), and, surprisingly for such a delicate fabric, is machine washable.
It can be worn as a long dress, short dress, pencil or mini skirt, top or wide belt. It sounds like the ultimate investment - several outfits for the price of one - and a dream solution for a holiday suitcase.
I feel suitably excited - until the Fatal arrives. It's a minuscule square of wafer-thin material which unfurls to reveal what looks like an overgrown elastic boob tube.
It barely looks big enough to wear as a scarf, let alone cover my size ten frame. Quite frankly, it doesn't look like it's going to do my summer-pudding tummy any favours.
There's a style guide included in the box. First, I go for the full-length maxi-dress.
The lack of seams causes initial confusion about which way round it goes before I locate a tiny label that indicates which end is the top.
Stepping into the tube, I wriggle it up to my shoulders.

Worn this way, without folding it over, the dress borders on see-through and feels too flimsy to hold in my curves. It shows up everything and feels cheap - more Blackpool than Barbados. It's skin-tight, hard to walk in and I simply don't feel comfortable.
But the beauty of the Fatal is if you don't like it, you change it. So I swiftly move on to folding the material up to make a knee-length dress - and voila!
Yes it's still tight, but as I double the fabric over it suddenly seems to have a miraculous Spanx-like effect and works like a tummy control panel. I'm astonished. My midriff has suddenly flattened and everything appears more toned.
    * Best dressed bump! Vanity Fair's voted her a fashion icon - so how does SamCam stay so glam with a baby on the way?
    * Kelly Brook: Finding clothes that suit my curvy shape has been a struggle
I feel like I've been lipo-ed, or at least that I've stuck to my bikini diet. Folding it over again from the top creates a chic pencil skirt that makes my bum look pert.
It looks great with a T-shirt and heels. The results are getting better and better. Rather than creasing as you fold it over, the fabric lies smoother, and instead of adding bulk it shaves off inches.
The secret is the more you fold, the better the body-sculpting effect, and it's all about finding the fold that best flatters your shape.

I try it out doubled up as a strapless top, then as a longer length top, which gives a fantastic corset-effect on my waist. It also works well as a super-comfortable tummy-controlling tube-dress worn over leggings and even as a waist-cinching belt.
Depending on your figure - and your daring - there really are endless possibilities on how you wear it. That's my holiday packing sorted.

The dress that suits EVERY shape the perfect fit

Sighs of relief are reverberating around the country. According to U.S. Glamour magazine, there is one dress type that flatters every size and shape.

It is suitable for the office, yet sexy enough for a date - and affordable, too. This wonder garment is the jersey dress. Its draped front, three-quarter sleeves, longish length, cinched waist and clever ruching means it solves any problem even the most self-conscious woman can come up with.
Better still, it’s the sort of dress popularised by Brazilian designer Issa,
On trend: Liz Jones, left, says the jersey dress, popularised by Kate Middleton, right, suits and flatters every figure but that the bigger the girl, the better it looks
But does this style of dress really flatter every figure?

the dress does look fabulous on all these women; playing up good points and disguising the bad points. The petite woman in particular is not swamped by this style, while the plus-size model looks pretty damn sexy.
I represented the tall, slim and ancient category, with a flat chest and flatter bottom thrown in for good measure.

But I think my shape is the least flattered by this style. You need curves to make it interesting and draping works better over a round bottom, while the plunging neckline looks better if you have breasts.
This style is great for my upper arms, but it doesn’t disguise my non-existent chest. If you are tall and thin, you need tailoring to give you definition.
But who cares. Skinny beanpoles with flat buttocks have myriad choices out there. This is one dress that gets better the bigger the girl. Amen to that.
