Prada store in Marfa, West Texas visited by Yulia Dyukova
This is Yulia Dyukova in the small town of Marfa in West Texas. Every year Marfa is flooded by thousands of fashionistas traveling here with one goal – to take a picture in front of Prada store.
The shop is located right in the middle of Texan desert with nothing around but occasional cars passing and tumbleweeds rolling on the road. Prada was created as a land art project. Although the doors of the store are always closed, you can peek through the window and see real Prada shoes and bags from the fall/winter 2005 collection, selected by Miuccia Prada herself.
Prada boutique, though, is not the only strange thing you can find in Marfa.
Read about the rest in her blog http://www.thefoodiemiles.com.
Yulia Dyukova (@thefoodiemiles on Instagram) is a Russian food and travel blogger who found home first in Sri Lanka for 3 years, then in Brazil for a year and is currently based in Austin, Texas. She is the kind of person who starts a research of the new country by googling “what to eat in…” instead of “what to visit in…” Yulia is a self-proclaimed “food nerd” who will spend hours reading on the origins of pecan pie before trying it and who doesn’t consider waiting in line of 50 people to get a cronut a waste of time. She finds it hard to keep her delicious findings to herself and that is the reason why her blog exists.
