Color blocking is something I learned about while taking a color theory class. It is basically an adjacent arrangement of primary colors to give a sense of depth. You typically want to use two complementary colors on the traditional color wheel and you can block using black or white. I will admit when I first saw the ad campaigns and a few of the designs from the collection I immediately thought tacky!! The more I see Prada's designs the more I am loving it. It has a very vibrant and fun feel to it. Color blocking best works with bright loud colors so I would never suggest this with a muted palette. Here are a few designs from the collection. Miuccia really did a great job with this design concept it is very different and impressive.
