Prior to joining InStyle, she held roles at Refinery29 and People en Español.Of all the fashion brands out there, it’s fair to say Prada is one of the industry’s most boundary-pushing labels. And if anything can convince even the non-believers that the luxury house is on the cutting edge of fashion, it’s the brand’s latest project, the end-all-be-all of collaborations: a space suit with Axiom Space.
“Going beyond our limits is one of the company’s values that perfectly reflects the spirit of the Prada brand and my parents’ vision,” says Lorenzo Bertelli, Prada Group Chief Marketing Officer and Head of Corporate Social Responsibility. “We’ve shared our expertise on high-performance materials, features, and sewing techniques, and we learned a lot.”
Take the red stripes, for example. This shade has long been synonymous with the brand’s Linea Rossa line, which first launched in 1997 with a tech-forward ethos, sporty styles, and innovative nylon fabrications. According to a press release, Prada helped Axiom work with “advanced technologies and innovative sewing methods to bridge the gap between highly engineered functionality and an aesthetically appealing white outer layer.
