Critique of a Critique

Munn's brief critique of Prada's recent attempt to merge fashion with the cyber world describes a strange and not entirely successful amalgamation of fashion, film, on-line worlds and gaming. Munn manages to inspire interest in the subject ( as, I suppose, a good post should do as well as simply expressing personal opinion) giving the reader a brief yet very descriptive account of the subject - its content, the art behind it and the references it makes. He describes Prada's concept of clothing within their created cyberworld: "The main item of clothing...isn't put on, it's transferred. Another avatar appears to bestow the clothing, virally spreading the distinctive check texture from herself to our heroine." while Munn seems to have an appreciation for the separate elements of the film, he concludes that its overall effect is disappointing. Perhaps geeks just can't do fashion.
