Perspective: Fashion is supposed to anticipate desires; so Prada offers civility
Prada Resort 2020 collection By Robin Givhan Robin Givhan Fashion critic Email Bio Follow Fashion critic May 4 at 4:06 PM NEW YORK — The designer Miuccia Prada showed some lovely clothes at her pink-bedecked headquarters here last week. She showed them on an ethnically diverse group of models. And while she invited her share of celebrities — Sofia Coppola, Marsai Martin — and influencers, she presented her collection without much hype or fanfare.
The incident, which spilled from the virtual world into the real one, was representative of just how deeply a company can insult and wound the public and how virulent the public response can be. Ignorance is maddening and inexcusable. And the public is right to react fiercely when the subject is racism. But after the yelling, what?
Redemption is in actions — and results. So the public waits and watches. But in the meantime there is this: a collection that is not about chest-beating and bravado, but calm. This is not the brand’s first collection since the accusations of racism. But it’s the first runway show here since then. It’s part of the fashion’s industry’s in-between season: Resort 2020. These are the clothes that would seem to be perfect for right now, when you might like a light jacket in the morning when the air is crisp or you’d prefer a dress with long sleeves for a little extra warmth during the evening commute.
