The brand staged a collection made up of archetypes of elegance - a sequence designed to maximise the personality of the wearer

Miuccia Prada defines&nbsp;her Spring/Summer 2020 collection as &quot;simple, not minimal&quot;. At the heart of everything there is&nbsp;the desire to cut the wardrobe down to the absolute essentials, to what is significant. Not an easy task given that &quot;Fashion takes you easily by the hand,&nbsp;so you need to be able to distinguish between what is really strong and what is not&quot;.&nbsp;

&quot;The feeling at the moment is about too much, too much of everything, too much,&quot; Prada said. But she also admits&nbsp;that &quot;It&#39;s a total&nbsp;contradiction. We need to consume less, but they want newness - clients want it, journalists want it, press want it, people want it. So probably, it&#39;s a contradictory subject. The real truth is that everybody wants more and wants newness&quot;.&nbsp;

That&#39;s a lot to consider for the design process, but as Prada describes, the collection is fundamentally &quot;about the power of women over clothing, and of style over fashion&quot;. The true protagonist of the show are the people.

For each of the models, Prada has built a look, trying to capture their character at its best. Each look represents a world of its own, a series of archetypes of elegance, interpreted by the nature of the model who wears it. &quot;I love watching the girls backstage, to see if they like what they&nbsp;wear. This season, more than ever, it&#39;s about their personality more than style, because they define the eccentricity of a look.&quot;&nbsp;

Colours range from neutrals and black to gold flashes and&nbsp;orange flares. A masculine touch dominates the fabrics used, interspersed with more feminine raw silk gauze. Leather is also a star, rendered in beautiful shades of lilac and all-over retro prints. Bucket bags made of leather and straw stand out.&nbsp;

&quot;I wanted to represent the common need to stop and understand what, even in fashion, makes sense and what doesn&#39;t,&quot;&nbsp;the designer concluded from the sidelines of the show. And judging by the looks, that&#39;s a mission more than accomplished. Check out the entire collection&nbsp;below:&nbsp;
