Miuccia Prada has made exploring women’s strength a leitmotif of her career. Once again, for fall 2020, she broached the subject.

This high-energy show played with proportions, fused past and future, old and new, sporty and formal, all in the name of dressing the modern man.

Miuccia Prada had a goal both straight-forward and profound: to create “a collection about the power of women over clothes.”

Prada was the musician’s first fashion show after he was found guilty of assault in Stockholm, and he spent much of his summer in custody, returning to the U.S. in August.

Heading to Shanghai, Miuccia Prada showed a collection that was about youthful classics done with new proportions.

According to Miuccia Prada, simplicity is rebellion. As rendered in her resort collection, it’s also very appealing.

Isn’t it romantic? In the world of Miuccia Prada, yes — with a military subplot.

Prada paid homage to Frankenstein, slapping his face onto pencil skirts and his cartoonish, disembodied hands onto men’s shirts.

One thought of the collection as both typical and atypical of Prada. The austere minimalist side referenced Prada’s early ethos yet the logos, swimwear and sock shoes found Miuccia Prada’s unfamiliar territory: trend surfing.

Nick Robinson and Algee Smith attended the show for the first time.

Prada was seeking a “more elegant” style for her man, something youthful, but discreet – and not baggy sportswear or streetwear.

It can be done, even without a big boat or Roman ruins: reality-based cruise that’s not a snooze.

In a compelling collection, Miuccia Prada showed inspiration in part from the newest addition to the Fondazione Prada complex, also the show venue.

Prada hit it hard, sending out street silhouettes made from layers of black nylon.

Four unique items created by celebrated architects were revealed on the Prada runway, as some of them attended the show, together with Joe Alwyn.
