However, backstage after their menswear show in Milan on Sunday, the duo admitted that the volatile present moment is a difficult one to translate to a collection. “You talk about the world now,” said Prada “or you talk about fashion The two things together, in this moment, are difficult.”The collection was, therefore, “uncomfortable”.
