I am (well, was) such a Prada fan but let’s just admit it - Prada hasn’t been leading fashion for quite some time - since 2016 or so, I should say. Everything is derivative of some past work or someone else’s work, everything is done to appeal to influencers, so logo-focused. It’s just relying on past successes, with nothing more to add to the conversation. I know it’s making lots of money now (those ridiculous 50-200% price increases help) but honestly, it’s already culturally irrelevant at this point.
