The Prada Fall/Winter 2025 women’s fashion show has landed at Milan Fashion Week, held at the Prada Foundation’s Deposito in Milan. The event attracted a dazzling array of guests, including Bae Doona, KARINA, Hunter Schafer, Maya Hawke, and Gal Gadot.
In this spectacular show, the collection co-created by Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons delves deep into the meaning and definition of today’s female qualities. Through fashion, it raises a series of questions to foster collective contemplation on typical female traits and discussions around the concept of beauty, reflecting how these notions continuously evolve with the changing society.
The garments in this collection are like walking pieces of art, with dresses that continually evolve to embody the diversity of feminine qualities. Each piece is unique, liberated from its original function, and its design challenges immediate recognition, hinting at deeper questions about its significance. With every effortless sway, the meaning of the clothing shifts, showcasing a collision of old and new elements that creates unexpected silhouettes.
The adjustment of garment proportions creates a new relationship between the body and the clothing, presenting a clear and streamlined structure. By using atypical materials and exposing raw seams, it highlights a conflict between authenticity and artistry.
The luxury of accessories is showcased through jewelry, bags, and bows, creating a striking contrast with the raw materials, a contrast that further challenges the traditional definitions of femininity. In the overall layout, the interplay of the raw and the refined, the structural and the ornamental allows the audience to feel the designer’s ingenuity. The metallic legs reshape the space, while the use of carpets created by designer Catherine Martin subtly echoes the complexity and opposing concepts inherent in the garments.
This grand show presents a visual dichotomy that rethinks and redefines feminine qualities, prompting deep reflection.
