The Miu Miu Fall/Winter 2023 collection by Miuccia Prada is focused on the instinctive process of looking, ways of seeing, and how an act of observation can in turn transform the object of its focus. Looking is a window to thinking. Featuring a special project in collaboration with artist Geumhyung Jeong.

Our work is rooted in memory; capturing moments from the past to reflect on the present. Through our latest Wearables collection, we remember our long and repeated journeys through the Silk Road, searching for and witnessing an ages-old savoir faire through textiles. These textiles and the extraordinary women that produced them were our first school, a space to reflect on heritage and craftsmanship. We collected and archived what we found and imagined all the possibilities of what it could become, harvesting new and contemporary items to wrap the body with poetically assembled impressions of the past.
In this collection "An Ode to the Old World", we wanted to give a sincere tribute to the history that depicted the notion of embroidery. We started eagerly digging into that world. Mesmerizing handmade pieces got out of the aged closets and pieces of magazine clippings gathered from forgotten drawers; both reflecting an honourable era when this work was a beautiful way for women to express themselves. An ode to the old world is dreaming of the future by genuinely and passionately looking into the past, and the belief that everything we need, we already have.
