Prada’s Monolith lug boots set the tone for Madonna’s all-black Milan Fashion Week look on Sunday in Milan. The “Hung Up” singer paired the lace-up, nylon-paneled style with a glossy black maxi skirt and a zip-front top as she continued making the fall 2026 fashion week rounds, this time alongside boyfriend Akeem Morris.

The Prada pair leaned into the Monolith codes: a rounded brushed-leather toe, a tight lace-up front with metal eyelets, and a thick rubber platform sole carved into deep, blocky lugs. Matte Re-Nylon panels broke up the shaft, and tonal stitching traced the upper. The boots retail for $1,790. The style is sold with Prada’s removable pouch detail, a small add-on that nods to the line’s utilitarian pitch, though it was hard to confirm in these photos whether Madonna kept it on.

Madonna kept the styling all black beyond the boots. A long zip-front top with roomy sleeves fell over a glossy maxiskirt, and she added oversize shield sunglasses with her hair worn loose in a center part. Morris followed in a black leather jacket over a white Henley and dark trousers.

Madonna’s Milan schedule has tracked with her recent Dolce & Gabbana work, including the brand’s ongoing “The One” fragrance push that positioned her as the face of its latest campaign. Her presence in the city also aligned with the wider fall 2026 circuit, where she has been photographed supporting multiple luxury moments beyond a single front row.
The Monolith family has helped keep ‘90s-era heaviness in the current shoe conversation, especially since Prada’s pandemic-era wave of chunky loafers returned the idea of a thick sole to the center of luxury styling. That same lug-sole logic continues to show up as a reliable fashion week option across categories, from loafers to combat-style boots.

It has also been a repeat silhouette on other celebrity rosters lately. Priyanka Chopra, for example, has treated lug-sole boots as a travel default, recently repeating a black, pull-on version at JFK with a full denim set — another example of the thick-tread profile functioning as an easy, durable choice when the outfit stays simple. Other stars opt for Dr. Martens as their go-to combat boot style, which you can see more of below.
