PRADA FINDS BEAUTY IN THE EVERYDAY

The poetry of the ordinary

Simple Stories transforms ordinary moments into extraordinary expressions of modern luxury.

Luxury doesn’t always have to be loud. For Prada’s Fall/Winter 2026 campaign, Simple Stories, the Italian fashion house embraces a quieter perspective, finding elegance in life’s most intimate moments.

Conceived by Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons, the campaign offers a thoughtful response to the fast pace and complexity of modern life. Rather than focusing on grand spectacles, Simple Stories celebrates subtle gestures, meaningful interactions, and the quiet beauty found in everyday experiences.

Continuing Prada’s longstanding relationship with cinema, the campaign is directed by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Barry Jenkins. His cinematic vision brings the collection to life through a series of still and moving images that feel both deeply personal and effortlessly authentic.

Featuring actors Chen Haoyu, Kelvin Harrison Jr., Hunter Schafer, and Troye Sivan, the campaign unfolds through fragments of imagined lives. Each frame invites viewers to create their own interpretation, with domestic settings and understated portraits allowing the clothing to become a natural extension of each character.

With Simple Stories, Prada reminds us that true luxury is often found in simplicity. It is a celebration of authenticity, emotion, and the extraordinary beauty hidden within the everyday, proving once again that the most compelling stories are often the quietest ones.
