“Our Group continues to make strategic progress as we invest for long-term, sustainable growth. Over the first quarter, we delivered a solid performance in a more challenging market environment. In this context, we have to maintain flexibility and agility to respond to constantly evolving industry dynamics while continuing to innovate and invest across our business, leveraging the strength of our reinforced organisation and the talent of our people”.
Andrea Guerra, Group Chief Executive Officer, added:
“Prada Group had a positive start to the year. During the first quarter Prada experienced solid and above-market growth against a high quarterly basis of comparison; Miu Miu’s strong performance is a testament to the strategy and disciplined execution implemented over the past years. We continue to progress in our journey towards retail excellence, enriching our product range and driving customer engagement to nurture our brands’ desirability. Sharpness of positioning, creativity and communication will be critical this year; while the industry is experiencing new dynamics, we retain our ambition to deliver solid, sustainable and above market growth”.
High desirability for Prada and thriving momentum for Miu Miu
Prada continues to exhibit high brand desirability, following the well-received FW24 Men’s and Women’s fashion shows. The introduction of Leather Goods novelties, such as the Buckle Bag, further enriched the category alongside the ongoing reinterpretation of icons. The focus on Prada Re-Nylon collection throughout the quarter reiterated the brand’s commitment to sustainability.
Miu Miu’s momentum remained very positive, with the highly acclaimed FW24 fashion show driving brand desirability further. Leather Goods continued to be received very positively by clients, with both new lines (Ivy and Softy) and icons (Arcadie and Wander) performing well, also supported by dedicated campaigns. The brand’s collaborations with Church’s and New Balance contributed to give further dynamism to Miu Miu’s identity. Consolidated event formats kept elevating the dialogue with the Miu Miu community worldwide.
