Prada Fall/Winter 2019 – Milan Fashion Week

Five weeks ago, Miuccia Prada presented a men’s collection that took as its starting point the story of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley’s monstrous, rejected, lovesick antihero. In that show Prada included a smattering of women’s looks from her Pre-Fall 2019 collection.
Based on the ‘’Anatomy of Romance’’ theme, Miuccia Prada continued her exploration of Shelley’s canonical invention, this time giving him a bride (literally, on a sheath dress worn by a bleached-browed Cara Delevingne) and positioning him at the center of a larger sociocultural critique of our times, which she feels are defined by ‘’romance and fear’’.
