More quotes by Miuccia Prada
If you ask, do you like strong men or weak men, I'd say, I like who I like.
Miuccia Prada
One's life and passion may be elsewhere, but New York is where you prove if what you think in theory makes sense in life.
Miuccia Prada
If I have done anything, it is to make ugly appealing. In fact, most of my work is concerned with destroying—or at least deconstructing—conventional ideas of beauty, of the generic appeal of the beautiful, glamorous, bourgeois woman. Fashion fosters clichés of beauty, but I want to tear them apart.
Miuccia Prada
I'm not interested in types. I'm interested in archetypes.
Miuccia Prada
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.
Miuccia Prada
To have to be sexy? That I hate. To be outrageously sexy? That I love.
Miuccia Prada
I once tried to make lace - which has been a great obsession of women - unsexy. And I achieved it.
Miuccia Prada
When you want to do something that is challenging or interesting or new, you never find the place. All the places are obvious or old or generic. And so you realize that the role of architecture is fundamental.
Miuccia Prada
I hate the idea that you shouldn't wear something just because you're a certain age.
Miuccia Prada
Nostalgia is a very complicated subject for me. I'm attracted by nostalgia but I refuse it intellectually.
Miuccia Prada
I realized that so many clever people respect fashion so much.
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 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
I don't believe that anyone is not bothered by critics. I think that everybody cares.
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
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
For me, art is about learning and about living with people. It's alive.
Miuccia Prada
The process of a date, I think, is terrible. Horrible. Because everything is banal and predicted.
Miuccia Prada
I suppose I felt guilty not to be doing something more important, more political. So in a way I am trying to use the company for these other activities.
