The invitation arrives in a little fluffy cloud of pink fake fur. Inside, there is, among other treats, a box of marrons glacés. It feels like something you’d send to Jean Harlow. Quite the surreal entrée to the first men’s collection that Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons have worked on together. Still, it feels oddly appropriate for such surreal times in fashion. Once again, we’re gathered round screens, not runways, to view the virtual presentation of a new season. The physicality of fashion is still on hiatus.
