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?

More quotes by 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
Women always try to tame themselves as they get older, but the ones who look best are often a bit wilder.
Miuccia Prada
Nostalgia is a very complicated subject for me. I'm attracted by nostalgia but I refuse it intellectually.
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
I had no fun. My family was too serious.
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
We will always buy clothes because they let us live our dreams.
Miuccia Prada
If I have done anything, it is to make ugly appealing.
Miuccia Prada
You have to embrace the world if you want to live in it now.
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
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
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
I like to be useful to people.
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'm not interested in types. I'm interested in archetypes.
Miuccia Prada
Prada is something that should be so mundane, like clothes.
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
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
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 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.
