Andreas Gursky's Prada I, 1996 (see illustration 3) displays shoes from both Prada's AW and SS collections – a simultaneity not seen in Prada stores. Taking a similar step, I've presented its SS14 shoes alongside Hunter Original SS15 ones and called this a Jet Leg (read Jet Lag). The Sun really never sets on the British Empire as Burberry CEO Christopher Bailey jumps from the London Stock Exchange to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (see illustration 5), and in his wake, the word "Sun" appropriately makes itself seen on some of Prorsum's SS15 looks.
