What it doesn&#39;t evoke is a 6-foot-tall, white-haired, screaming-and-cursing Italian man. But <a href="http://magazine.wsj.com/features/the-big-interview/miuccia-and-me/" target="_blank">WSJ Magazine</a> reveals in <strong>&quot;Miuccia and Me&quot;</strong> the other half of Miuccia Prada&#39;s iconic label is the designer&#39;s husband, <strong>Patrizio Bertelli</strong>, CEO of Prada and judge, jury, and executor of all-things-business at the famous fashion line.
