This might sound frivolous at first, but the more you think about the less that it seems so. Prada are famed for their minimalist aesthetic. If they can successfully bring that to spacesuit design it will be a bonus. But they can add more. They have expertise in materials and garment manufacturing that space companies won't have. It will be interesting to see what comes out of this collaboration. It might become a "classic" space suit design, used into the 2030s and 40s.
