The 5 Items Everyone’s Adding to Their Wish List From Prada’s Autumn/Winter 2026 Show

Everyone looks forward to ‘Prada day’ during Milan Fashion Week—and not just for the guarantee of a star-studded front row, either… No, the much-loved Italian luxury brand remains one of the calendar’s undisputed highlights thanks to Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons’ innate ability to create really great clothes that real women actually want to wear, free from the performative bells and whistles so often seen elsewhere.

This was precisely the point behind their Autumn/Winter 2026 collection, that was unveiled yesterday and offered a masterclass in practical yet elevated layering that felt distinctly real-world-ready. Featuring just 15 looks and 15 models—Bella Hadid, included—the show saw each appear four times, but with different layers in the spotlight to reflect how one outfit can transform at different moments in the same day.

“Layering is meaningful,” explained Miuccia Prada. “Within the collection, pieces are laid over each other, and then taken away—and in that process, our perceptions of the individual garments, the outfits and the women who wear them constantly transform… When pieces are laid over each other and contrasted, they create inherent contradictions. It’s always to express the complexity of life.”
