Prada SS26: Chaos Dressed as Clarity



Professor Ivan Allegranti is a seasoned freelance journalist and academic…
A response to cultural overload, this Prada Spring/Summer 2026 collection distills and filters ideas through clothing. Elements disperse and reunite on the body, where juxtaposition becomes creation. Garments are freed from hierarchy: a Prada uniform aligns with evening dress, recomposed with notions of femininity into new elegance.
Shapes wrap the body unconventionally, structures pared back, lightness emphasized. Skirts suspend from shoulders, brassières hold form without structure. Meanings shift through adjacency, garments adapting with inherent flexibility. Each composition transforms continuously, responding insistently to the present.
