Extremely elegant in their exaggerated style, the three new Minimal Baroque models, an innovative revisiting of the iconic sunglasses collection launched in 2011, feature spirals of abstract garlands made of acanthus leaves, laurel branches and palm fronds that bud and intertwine to form the defining curve of each design.
These models represent the perfect combination of creative experimentation and meticulous craftsmanship, rooted in both tradition and innovation. In Prada’s constant search for contrasts, the brand’s way of constantly moving forward, the banal turns into something precious, the basic is made brave and beautiful, and the exaggerated becomes essential.
Minimal Baroque gives new life to the flower and foliage motifs that were wildly popular in the Baroque period, one of art history’s most exuberant eras, with ornate and intricate motifs of the past refined to create continuous, streamlined gestures. These flourishes are perfectly integrated into the frames, and are simultaneously decorative and functional, three-dimensional and flat, fanciful and realistic.
The three models that make up the new collection are already available to buy in store.
