Miuccia Prada at Miu Miu Made Dressing Easy. Nicolas Ghesquière at Louis Vuitton Did Not.

Miu Miu’s spring show, led by Miuccia Prada, championed a stripped‑down aesthetic, urging that dressing should be effortless and centered on the body. The collection featured simple slip dresses, jersey jackets and bold accessories, reinforcing a minimalist ethos. In contrast, Louis Vuitton’s Nicolas Ghesquière presented an elaborate, alien‑world narrative with high‑priced, complex designs that made dressing feel challenging. The divergent approaches highlight a growing tension between luxury extravagance and consumer‑driven calls for accessibility.
