Miuccia Prada never plans her outfits in advance and has admitted she thinks some of her outfits are ''appalling''.
Miuccia Prada often wears clothes she thinks are "appalling".
The renowned Italian designer - who works for Prada and heads her fashion forward sister company Miu Miu - admitted even she sometimes hates her own signature style.
She said: "I get passions, I have to wear something even if I know it's really appalling. It's all about the fantasy of the moment and for about 20 days it's all I want."
While some of her outfits may be "appalling" Miuccia doesn't mind and believes she is responsible for making "ugly cool".
She said: "I try to make ideas interesting and intelligence seem appealing. If I have done anything, what I probably changed deeply was making ugly cool."
The 61-year-old designer - who is the youngest granddaughter of The Company's founder Mario Prada - doesn't plan her outfits in advance and revealed she never throws anything away.
She told Britain's Vogue magazine: "I can never decide what I want to wear until the last minute. I never throw anything away."
Although her old clothes have a full apartment to themselves, Miuccia - whose celebrity fans include Tilda Swinton, Victoria Beckham and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen - added: "They are horribly kept. Nothing is archived. I haven't been for a while. I think it must be a mess."
