The Prada Spring/Summer 2025 Womenswear show at the Depositone Prada in Milan inside Fondazio delivered a bold fusion of architectural minimalism and dynamic femininity. As always, Miuccia Prada’s creative direction defied expectations, blending classic elegance with avant-garde elements that pushed the boundaries of traditional fashion.
The setting, inside industrial Deposito, served as the perfect backdrop for Prada’s vision. The space emphasized the clean lines and sculptural silhouettes that defined the collection.
The collection was far from restrained. As the show progressed, an explosion of vibrant colors and bold textures emerged. Dresses and skirts featured unexpected combinations of fabrics—paired with technical accessories, and that improvised and force the spectator to create a sense of controlled chaos. The interplay between hard and soft elements was a recurring theme, with metallic accents and exaggerated proportions adding a futuristic flair to the collection.
The accessories, always a highlight of any Prada show, were equally daring. Models strutted down the runway in oversized sunglasses with sculptural frames, chunky platform sandals, and sleek handbags that merged form and function. The bags, in particular, showcased Prada’s iconic nylon material, reinvented with intricate embellishments and geometric shapes, nodding to the brand’s signature innovation.
These pieces encapsulated Prada’s ability to balance elegance with edginess—feminine yet fiercely modern. The makeup and hair mirrored this duality, with models sporting slicked-back hair and minimal makeup punctuated by bold, graphic eyeliner.
The atmosphere inside the venue was electric, with a star-studded front row that included fashion icons, celebrities, and industry insiders. The music, a pulsating blend of electronic beats, heightened the energy and emphasized the collection’s forward-thinking spirit. And for the after party it was a pleasure to listen to the legend of electronic music Richie Hawtin.
