About Prada Eyewear
EssilorLuxottica has made Prada, Prada Linea Rossa and Miu Miu eyewear under licence from the Prada Group since 2003, and calls Prada the most significant licence in its eyewear portfolio. The Prada name is not EssilorLuxottica's. Its licences are exclusive global contracts of five to 15 years under which it pays royalties of 6 to 13 per cent of the collection's net sales, and Miu Miu and Prada were its top-performing licensed brands in 2025.
