A funny thing happens when you enter your mid to late twenties—you suddenly find yourself commiserating with other people around your age about how painfully *uncool* you are compared to the youths bounding around New York, Los Angeles, Paris, etc., despite being, on the contrary, as cool as you’ve ever been in your life.

Such is the case for designer Prisca Vera Franchetti of her eponymous line, PRISCAVera, who, despite witnessing several fashion insiders like Reese Blustein and Courtney Tropswoon over her fall 2018 ready-to-wear show just a few weeks ago, would still rather know what a stylish teenager wants out of her clothes.
