Puzzle-like compositions—both adamantly flat and invitingly deep—define the Aspen Map Collection, a body of work designed by Prada with artwork by artist and entrepreneur Paula Crown. Crown’s sketches start as printed color forms on glassy smooth gesso-primed linen that accrues layer after layer of delicately calibrated brushwork. While the artwork emulates the numinous surface of fresh snow, the technical features of this boxy zip-up elevate the piece beyond a well-made jersey.
Made from two-layer jersey fabric produced from recycled polyester fiber, the ASPENX Prada Women’s Map Jersey includes heat-sealed tape seams for thermal insulation, a pouch pocket, and Prada Linea Rossa intarsia latex logo badge.
