On September 24, co-creative directors Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons simultaneously presented Prada's Spring/Summer 2022 collection in Milan and Shanghai.
"It’s no longer about a small world -- in fashion, or elsewhere," Simons shared in the press notes. "Doing these shows simultaneously demonstrates a new possibility… Community is a vital idea: drawing together people who share ideologies, values, and beliefs."
Influenced by the ideas of seduction and the expression of sexuality through clothing, select designs feature satin fabric while others are made with scarlet lace. Structured silhouettes like the leather jackets and coats are styled with silk mini skirts with trains. Elsewhere, the Duchess satin sheath dresses with a low back come in seasonal hues of pastel pink and yellow. "We thought of words like elegant -- but this feels so old-fashioned. Really, it’s about a language of seduction that always leads back to the body," Prada added. "Using these ideas, these references to historical pieces, the collection is an investigation of what they mean today."
