Global Icons Gather at Prada’s Dreamy Runway Event
On June 22, the Fondazione Prada Deposito in Milan set the stage for Prada’s Spring/Summer 2026 menswear collection showcase. With surreal visuals and a whimsical atmosphere, this star-studded show drew attention from fashion enthusiasts and K-culture fans alike.
K-pop Royalty Graces the Runway
K-pop sensation Sana of TWICE, EXO’s stylish Kai, and rising actor Lee Dohyun were among the standout guests. Sana captivated the crowd in a black chevron dress paired with a unique Prada Dada bag—classic elegance with a modern twist. Kai chose a washed denim coat layered over a sleek black suit, radiating his signature chic energy. Lee Dohyun completed the trio with his fresh Prada ensemble: a white satin jacket and pinstripe pants, blending charm and sophistication.
Prada’s Vision: A Harmonious Clash
Under the creative direction of Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons, this season’s collection embraced a surreal yet soothing aesthetic. The open venue, brushed with natural light and sounds of birds and cowbells, struck an emotional chord before a single model walked the runway. Shaggy floral carpets added textural contrast to the setting.
The show opened with a white camp shirt and loosely-fitted bloomer pants—a combination quirky enough to feel like a paper doll cutout, yet undeniably Prada. The runway continued with airy mac coats, retro track suits, short pants, and edgy leather car coats. Color choices were bold: khaki, lavender, scarlet, and sky blue—all balanced in ways only Prada could manage.
Star-Studded Evening at Ristorante Torre
Following the runway, a private dinner at Ristorante Torre gathered stars from across the globe. Alongside the Korean celebrities were Japanese actor Sakaguchi Kentaro, British star Benedict Cumberbatch, and actor Harris Dickinson. Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons joined as hosts, reinforcing Prada’s international prestige and creative influence.
A Statement of Creative Freedom
This season’s message? Breaking norms can be beautiful. Prada continues to champion individuality with its distinctive visual narrative and fearless design. The full show is available on the brand’s official website and social platforms for fashion lovers worldwide to relive the mesmerizing moment.
As K-pop’s global presence grows, appearances like these signal a larger movement—where music, fashion, and culture seamlessly collide.
