Possible Conversations
A series of talks at Prada Epicenter stores, in collaboration with Fondazione Prada
Echoing a belief in fashion’s inherent dialectical nature - the push and pull of inspiration from the realms of art and architecture, music, cinema and more - Prada Possible Conversations reflect the plurality and layered meaning of the Prada universe. Exploring culture, fashion and life, the speakers engage in conversations between people, but also between places, mindsets and values, in discussion that promise to be enlightening, engaging, perhaps revelatory.
The innovative ‘Epicenters’, crossing boundaries between cultural and retail spaces, aim to enrich the experience of Prada’s clientele. Designed by renown architects such as Rem Koolhaas and Herzog & de Meuron, they are full of innovation, freshness and excitement. The Prada Epicenters recognise consumers as human beings, transforming retail space into a lively environment that explores different interests and cultural activities, and is itself a work of architectural significance.
