PRADA 2026 Spring/Summer Menswear Show just concluded in Milan. This season’s collection, themed “A Change of Tone”, draws inspiration from natural elements like mountains, lakes, sunlight, and earth. Creative directors Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons combined minimalist tailored pieces like suits, trench coats, and shirts with eye-catching retro sportswear, ultra-short culottes, and straw bell hats, creating youthful looks full of innocence and utopian charm that convey a relaxed dressing attitude.
Sunlight poured through skylights, creating moving shadows throughout the show space. The runway featured giant black-and-white floral carpets, accompanied by background sounds of birdsong, cowbells, barking dogs, and ocean waves, establishing a serene and dreamy atmosphere for the collection.
“With this collection, we wanted to change the tone – completely opposite to the radical, authoritarian, and dark aspects prevailing in today’s world. We aimed to present something sincere and beautiful, something calm and positive that allows free self-expression.”
• Two-Tone Nylon Bags •
The bag collection continues PRADA’s practical and minimalist approach, blending classic colors like black, gray, and khaki with vibrant cobalt blue, bright red, lavender, blush pink, and mint green hues that bring energy to spring and summer. The new Re-Nylon series features two-tone designs as the main highlight, incorporating multi-functional pockets and carabiner clips for an outdoor-inspired, cheerful aesthetic.
• Messenger Bags •
The messenger bags come in military-style canvas or waxed leather, featuring adjustable padded straps and utilitarian buckle details. Available in classic graphite gray, navy blue, and black, these spacious bags work perfectly as camera bags or outdoor companions.
• Barrel Bags •
The barrel bags feature minimalist silhouettes in canvas or textured leather, accented with tonal nylon straps, short handles, and adjustable shoulder straps.
