Milan fashion week: Prada liberates as Max Mara brings the drama
Briefly

Miuccia Prada's latest collection showcases a response to contemporary socio-political issues, prioritizing freedom of movement over traditional feminine beauty standards. Featuring generously cut black dresses and minimalist designs, the collection stands as a counterpoint to the constricting styles often associated with femininity. Prada emphasizes that glamour is perceived as feeling important rather than merely aesthetic. Simons echoes this sentiment, rejecting corsetry in favor of liberation. The absence of evening gowns signals a departure from decadence, focusing instead on practical garments adorned with subtle glamorous elements like jewels and bows, reflective of today's societal mood.
When we think of feminine beauty in clothes, our minds go straight away to something constricted,... we wanted these clothes to be about liberation.
This is not a time for decadence,... instead, there were gestures of glamour — jewels, bows, high heels — on woollen dresses and cotton shirts.
