Prada Handbags
Prada, lead by fashion designer Miuccia Prada, is perhaps best known for its lovely black nylon designer Prada handbags and signature triangle logo.
The Prada label was started in 1913 by Mario Prada who sold handbags, shoes and trunks. His granddaughter, Miuccia Prada, was born in 1950, and even though she earned a doctorate in Political Science and was an active communist, her claim to fame is the signature Prada nylon handbag, which is made out of a type of nylon fabric called 'Pocone' and it helped turn the family company into a billion-dollar-business.
Prada nylon shoulder bags are streamlined, simple, chic and classic and they come in different shapes and sizes - including totes, backpacks, clutches, etc. Even though the price tag on a Prada purse often limits them to celebrity consumption, many women are willing to sacrifice other wardrobe necessities in lieu of a $350 to $1,200 status-symbolizing Prada bag. Prada also designs luxury men's and women's shoes - including everything from stilettos and boots to strappy sandals and even sneakers.
In addition to the Prada label, the Miuccia family, under fashion maven Fabio Zambernardi also designs the Miu Miu designer label. Miu Mui is in essence Prada's more affordable and funkier sister line. Miu Miu handbags tend to lean toward edgier designs and are often more embellished than it's more mature and sophisticated Prada sibling.
Prada handbags are estimated to be the most imitated fashion accessory today. To ensure their authenticity every Prada handbag is outfitted with an authorization card and the Prada logo appears on all zipper hardware.
