More quotes by Miuccia Prada
Nostalgia is a very complicated subject for me. I'm attracted by nostalgia but I refuse it intellectually.
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
I once tried to make lace - which has been a great obsession of women - unsexy. And I achieved it.
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 like to be useful to people.
Miuccia Prada
I’ve never wanted to be called an artist. The term itself seems old-fashioned. It’s a term that does not relate to modern times. And it’s too confining. What I love about fashion is its accessibility and its democracy. Everyone wears it, and everyone relates to it.
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
Women have the stress of being beautiful, of age and youth. Men don't have all that. And with women, that stress causes a lot of mistakes and bad choices - a lot of not being their true self.
Miuccia Prada
Fashion fosters cliches of beauty, but I want to tear them apart.
Miuccia Prada
I would say that clothes are an excuse for living in the world.
Miuccia Prada
I'm not interested in how people dress.
Miuccia Prada
The process of a date, I think, is terrible. Horrible. Because everything is banal and predicted.
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 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
Women always try to tame themselves as they get older, but the ones who look best are often a bit wilder.
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
I remember being mad about having pink and red shoes. I gew up envying other girls' pink and red shoes.
Miuccia Prada
You cannot do something just for the money. You have to do things you believe in and eventually you will make money.
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.
