When I talk with people, I don't even see what they are wearing . . . No, I recognize it if it's something particularly nice and interesting. I see the exception.

More quotes by Miuccia Prada
You want to be understood by the sophisticated few but you also have to be more loud somehow, otherwise your message doesn't go through.
Miuccia Prada
Many of us grew up with a kind of puritanism against shopping. But shopping can be much more than how it is cast. If you are bored or you have problems, it can be a way of lifting your spirits, by doing something light and superficial. Why not?
Miuccia Prada
I'm not interested in types. I'm interested in archetypes.
Miuccia Prada
We will always buy clothes because they let us live our dreams.
Miuccia Prada
I remember being mad about having pink and red shoes. I gew up envying other girls' pink and red shoes.
Miuccia Prada
Ugly is attractive, ugly is exciting. Maybe because it is newer. The investigation of ugliness is, to me, more interesting than the bourgeois idea of beauty. And why? Because ugly is human.
Miuccia Prada
To have to be sexy? That I hate. To be outrageously sexy? That I love.
Miuccia Prada
I think more and more, if you live in the current world - and live internationally - it's all a mix of interests, and the same people who are interested in fashion are also interested in movies, art, and culture.
Miuccia Prada
Now, I'm not saying I'm fashionable, but there are sociological interests that matter to me, things that are theoretical, political, intellectual and also concerned with vanity and beauty that we all think about but that I try to mix up and translate into fashion.
Miuccia Prada
Because of the Prada name, I can do things that people normally would not care about in the culture. I can have an exhibit by some forgotten artist who I love, and because it's Prada, people will come see it.
Miuccia Prada
Fashion is a little help in the life of a person. But very little. After all, if you have a serious drama, who cares about the clothes?
Miuccia Prada
I always believe in doing new things and using new materials that I have never used or that I didn't like for a long time.
Miuccia Prada
Clothes can be important. I am learning this. For instance, often when I design and I wonder what is the point, I think of someone having a bad time in their life.
Miuccia Prada
Women often don't want to admit that they like fashion. And yet fashion enthralls everyone, from the taxi driver to the mega-intellectual. I have often asked myself why this is. I don't know the answer.
Miuccia Prada
If you ask, do you like strong men or weak men, I'd say, I like who I like.
Miuccia Prada
I'm not interested in how people dress.
Miuccia Prada
When I design and wonder what the point is, I think of someone having a bad time in their life. Maybe they are sad and they wake up and put on something I have made and it makes them feel just a bit better. So, in that sense, fashion is a little help in the life of a person. But only a little.
Miuccia Prada
I like to be useful to people.
Miuccia Prada
Seduction is a matter of feelings and people opening themselves. I don't think it's something tricky - it's being human. And everybody is seduced by something different.
Miuccia Prada
We, as designers, have a job with so many possibilities and connections. We are connected to so many different portals, from art to movies to music to design. Fashion is always evolving. Actually, the field is huge. I don't think there is another profession that is so open to so many possibilities.
