Prada has launched its captivating Fall/Winter 2026 campaign, a collection envisioned by creative directors Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons, and brought to life through the lens of Oscar-winning director Barry Jenkins. The campaign seeks to capture a sense of 'domestic intimacy' and 'normalcy,' offering a fresh perspective on the luxury brand's latest offerings. Celebrated personalities, including brand ambassadors Kelvin Harrison Jr., Hunter Schafer, Troye Sivan, and Chen Haoyu, are featured, embodying the collection's essence in both still imagery and motion picture.

Jenkins' artistic direction emphasizes authentic, everyday moments, elevating simple acts like Kelvin Harrison Jr. contemplating in front of a mirror or Hunter Schafer preparing to leave the house. These seemingly ordinary scenes are infused with a deeper meaning and sophisticated flair, where the apparel, bags, and footwear become integral elements of the storytelling. Fernando Verder served as the creative director for this visually striking campaign, further enhancing its narrative depth.

This collaboration also marks a reunion for Jenkins and Harrison Jr., who previously worked together on the film 'Mufasa: The Lion King.' The campaign not only highlights the innovative designs of Prada but also celebrates the brand's long-standing relationship with its ambassadors. Schafer, for instance, has been a face of Prada since 2021, and her quote from that time resonates with the current campaign's theme: 'Prada is simultaneously youthful, and classic. Loud and conservative. Femme and masc. Hard and soft, etc., etc. All the best combos.'

This campaign masterfully intertwines high fashion with relatable human experiences, suggesting that true style emerges from the interplay of contrasting elements and the profound beauty found within everyday life. It encourages viewers to appreciate the quiet power of authenticity and the subtle elegance that defines the Prada aesthetic, ultimately inspiring a deeper connection between the brand and its audience.
