Frank Ocean turns poster boy for Prada’s SS20 campaign

The elusive musician has a go at defining the modern Prada man alongside actor Austin Butler and director Nicolas Winding Refn.

Who can forget Frank Ocean’s look for the 2019 Met Gala? As someone known for carving his own path in life and music, the ensemble was a testament to Ocean’s singular talent. Responding to the “camp” theme with a sleek black Prada windbreaker paired with ankle-skimming slacks, he cut an unusual figure on a red carpet dominated by sequins and a more-is-more attitude.

The ‘fit got online commentators’ tongues wagging and clearly also caught the eye of Prada, who have cast Ocean in their SS20 menswear campaign alongside  Once Upon A Time in Hollywood‘s Austin Butler and cult director Nicolas Winding Refn. Paying homage to the ever-evolving Prada spirit, each star puts their own spin on what the letters P-R-A-D-A means to them. For Ocean, it’s “Programming Rhythms And Dancing Again” – for Butler and Winding Refn’s take, check out the gallery below.
