Prada SS26

A Change of Tone

For Spring/Summer 2026, Prada presented a menswear collection titled “A Change of Tone” at the Deposito of Fondazione Prada in Milan. Co-creative directors Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons embraced a softer vision of masculinity—focused on calm, instinct, and emotional clarity rather than traditional notions of power dressing.

The designs featured high-waisted shorts, camp-collar shirts, light knitwear, and layered tailoring with a refined casualness. Raffia hats, oversized tote bags, and boat shoes added to the relaxed narrative. A soft pastel color palette—mint, blush, butter yellow—was occasionally broken by striking tones like cobalt, red, and violet.
