Prada Fall 2025 Collection
If there’s one thing Miuccia Prada masters, it’s the art of contradiction—and her Fall 2025 collection, created in collaboration with Raf Simons, is yet another testament to her genius. At Milan Fashion Week, Prada presented a fascinating exploration of femininity through a play of contrasts: impeccable tailoring set against disheveled silhouettes, demure skirts paired with deliberately tousled hair, luxury with a studied sense of imperfection.
The runway, framed by steel bars and vintage floral-print carpets, provided the perfect setting for a collection that challenges traditional notions of femininity. Loose black knee-length dresses, which might be considered “unkempt” in another context, exuded pure sophistication here. They were followed by voluminous coats worn without pants, slouchy sweaters with oversized buttons, and wrinkled skirts—as if they had been worn and forgotten, yet still exuded a carefully crafted charm.
Prada has never been a brand that plays it safe, and this season confirms that masterful balance between polished and raw aesthetics. Belted tailored jackets, structured pencil skirts with oversized pockets, and corporate-inspired skirt suits contrasted with more undone pieces, like pajama tops styled with worn-out white sneakers. The idea of femininity here is neither singular nor absolute: it’s multifaceted, flexible, and in constant reinvention.
Accessories played a key role in this narrative. Knit collars adorned with jewels, tube tops embellished with brooches, pearl buttons on structured coats, and Art Deco-inspired chain pendants added an unexpected layer of refinement to each look. The final piece, an oversized gray coat with pearl buttons, closed the show with a clear statement: luxury can have a rebellious streak.
Beyond aesthetics, this collection sparks a dialogue about the evolving codes of femininity in contemporary culture. At a time when discussions on aging, motherhood, and societal expectations of women’s appearance are at the forefront, Prada responds with a collection that challenges conventional norms and reclaims imperfection as a new form of sophistication.
As always, Miuccia Prada doesn’t offer easy answers—but she does pose thought-provoking questions that push us to reconsider the meaning of beauty. And in this tension between refined and undone, serious and ironic, conservative and subversive, Prada once again proves why she remains one of the most influential voices in contemporary fashion.
