The turban returns at Prada!

Those of you with a Tretchikoff reproduction hanging at home will recognise the look. The jewel colours and lustrous fabrics of Miss Wong's get up or the Orientalist, 40s glamour of The Lady With A Green Face is very evident in Mrs Prada's collection for spring -won't we be hot in all that duchess satin? To complete the look there are some characteristically idiosyncratic accessories, also in colourful satin: rucksacks, spike heels with (shocker!) pointed toes and these Norma Desmond turbans. Now, only Miuccia Prada could get us in those!

Would love to see this image, try again please, but can you take a photograph of the actual magazine, as this will avoid potential copyright issues with Vogue and the photographer, which will arise if you just scan the page in. It's easier as well.

Make sure it's a jpg file (actually ending .jpg) and it's less than 1mb.
