More quotes by 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
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
I had no fun. My family was too serious.
Miuccia Prada
I was a feminist in the Sixties, and can you imagine? The worst thing I could have done was to be in fashion. It was the most uncomfortable position.
Miuccia Prada
For me, art is about learning and about living with people. It's alive.
Miuccia Prada
I am interested in communicating with the world by selling to many people.
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
I always have this idea to create and display activities somewhere else around the world, but in fact it's been very difficult since the start, as you have to find the right place that can represent, or could be as significant as, your ideals. It rarely happens.
Miuccia Prada
My family was too serious. They didn't take care of me - it was a very serious and severe life. Not severe in a bad way just boring - like totally neutral. I felt no emotion.
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
I don't believe in people who think that clothes are not important.
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.
Miuccia Prada
Fashion fosters cliches of beauty, but I want to tear them apart.
Miuccia Prada
I don't believe that anyone is not bothered by critics. I think that everybody cares.
Miuccia Prada
Women always try to tame themselves as they get older, but the ones who look best are often a bit wilder.
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
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. Of course, I recognize if somebody's elegant. But fashion doesn't interest me.
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
The process of a date, I think, is terrible. Horrible. Because everything is banal and predicted.
