Asserting the primacy of clothing, the Prada Fall/Winter 2023 Men's Collection by Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons delves deeper into the fundamentals of fashion, defending its continuing meaning, value, and relevance today.

The modernist precepts of pared-back simplicity are combined with the apparent contradictions of comfort, exaggeration and intimacy. Fashion and Prada paradigms merge to translate the heritage of new clothing into fragments, both literal and conceptual. Reductionist tailoring, graphic fragments of prints and knitwear, worn against the skin.

Striped from unnecessary detail, garments embrace the body and interact with it in a comfortable way. Silhouettes are accentuated, amplified and reduced, exploring extreme variations in couture volume through the construction of garments.

The show space for Fondazione Prada's Deposito, designed by AMO, exposes the building's concrete walls. Within this raw, untouched panorama, dimensions are reconfigured and radically transformed. The ceiling slowly rises, transforming the space from intimate to grandiose. As the scale shifts, so does our perspective on the garments within. This process echoes the garments themselves, which are elongated and shortened, suggesting a reconfiguration of meaning and identity through minimalism.


"We're always talking about reality, and as designers, we're very conscious of what's going on, what the issues and challenges are. The world is in a complex place right now, and we're responding to that. The most honest thing we can do is create something that's useful to people right now—to confront reality through clothing and organize our own thoughts about reality. We want to create fashion that matters and has meaning. That's what fashion is about today."

Quotes by MIUCCIA PRADA


"This collection represents archetypal garments, taking something obvious and transforming it through silhouette and cut, transforming the expression of its form. These are garments that incorporate Prada's DNA—shards of identity that we recognize as the roots of Prada. They are undeniably clear and significant expressions of the brand's heritage and history, and what Prada means today."
