A total of 23,130 swatches of original fabrics, containing over 5,000 different designs, are stored at the Levanella textile archive, with a volume of over 300 m3: unique and exclusive prints, lace and macramé, made from fabrics of a range of weights.
Every Prada womenswear and menswear and Miu Miu material, dating back to the earliest collections, is stored in 1.5 m swatches with all the corresponding colour varieties, and catalogued, including comprehensive information about the producer and the material’s technical characteristics.
The entire archive has also been photographed and digitised, so each fabric can be searched for and viewed instantly.
It goes without saying that the archive is constantly expanding; it is updated every season with the fabrics from the new collections.
