Prada has invited the British electro-pop duo to give a special performance after a fashion show that will re-present the SS ’11 collection of the brand and include some new items designed specifically for the event.

With this event at the Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA) Museum tomorrow night, Prada follows the lead of Phillip Lim, Fendi and others who have given special, high-profile, shows in China aiming to woo their most important, fastest growing, new market. Prada China sales rose at an almost violent rate of 51% in the first nine months of last year, so the mood for Prada CEO Patrizio Bertelli and designer Miuccia Prada should also be celebratory.

Both Prada CEO Patrizio Bertelli and Miuccia Prada are expected to attend, and Prada plans on creating a series of new items specifically for the event.
