Prada Puts Danielle Deadwyler on Edge—in the Best Way Possible
Amid the hustle and bustle of retail buyers, designers, and fashion editors, Danielle Deadwyler is taking Milan Fashion Week in stride. What else would you expect from this season’s red carpet fixture? “The industrial feel of the city counters with lovely excitement and kindness for fashion week,” The Piano Lesson actress and ELLE Women in Hollywood honoree tells ELLE. For Prada’s fall/winter 2025 show at the Fondazione Prada’s Deposito, Deadwyler, who is no stranger to turning a look, chose a monochrome gray bra top, miniskirt, zip-up jacket, trench coat, and kitten heels. “Business threads remixed never fades,” she adds. Before the models hit the runway, Deadwyler invited us along as she got ready in her hotel room. See the exclusive photos, below.

A little comfort, a little on edge. Prada leans me into slick balance.
Details define the style process: gold jewelry, shades, and gray business threads remixed never fades.
Sleek Prada kittens are for coastin’ in Milan on the go.
In case chilly winds do blow: a trench and a steady (Prada heel) step.
Elated to move the energy. Let’s coast. Show time!
Ready to hit it. From the Palazzo to Prada. Ciao!
