The fifth episode of Remix is dedicated to Milan and Tuscany Prada Group’s Archives. A tangibile evidence of more than a century of research and creativity, they are a unique and inexhaustible source of inspiration: ready-to-wear iconic pieces, shoes, bags and accessories from all Group’s brands as well as exclusive prints, laces, macramé and embroideries from Prada and Miu Miu collections are treasured next to original textiles; an endless evidence of Prada Group’s brands research in these spheres. The Design Archive is organised into three departments: Sample Archive, Model Archive and Historic Furniture Archive. In the latter are collected models and 1:1 scale reproductions of the brands’ stores and shop windows, as well as samples of research materials and custom-made furniture.
