Miuccia Prada’s latest Miu Miu show had a knife-to-the-throat intensity, leaving you reeling with unease — the same feeling you get after watching an episode of “Black Mirror.”
“Black Mirror” has dedicated episodes to memory — the fallible ones of human beings versus the faultless storage capacity of machinery — and here Prada embraced a sweep of clothing archetypes from different stages of life: the prim Peter Pan-collared coats of childhood; the uniforms and scrubs for work, and the celebratory moments in a pouf skirt with Warhol-esque florals, or a suede jacket tacked with crystal brooches.

A disquieting, futuristic film by American Belgian artist Cécile B. Evans played on a loop before the show, depicting a translator painting her nails and sipping out of her ginormous Stanley water bottle — bored to the bone. When she finally gets down to her work transcribing a memory transmission in a lost language, her eyes light up, but then she suffers her own memory leakage, depicted digitally, like spores leaving a mushroom.
