When it comes to the most iconic bag brands, Prada is easily one of the most recognizable and most widely loved. Prada launched me into my love of designer bags; I lusted after a one of the brand’s iconic Tessuto nylon messenger bags during much of high school, and I received it was a gift when I began college. I remember feeling so enamored of my Prada bag, and even at that young age, I could tell how much higher quality it was from other brands in my collection at the time. Prada is distinguished by meticulous attention to craftsmanship and detail, and that’s still very much the case today.

Though Prada has evolved over time by embracing new techniques and ideas, the brand stays committed to the enduring quality of its pieces. like many long-standing brands, the methods Prada employs have been passed down by craftsmen over the course of years, and they’re so vital and specific to the brand that they could easily be called trade secrets. just like those crucial rules of craftsmanship, some of the brand’s designs are equally long-standing; two of the most highly sought-after Prada pieces remain the Prada Galleria and Prada double Bags.

The Galleria and double are classic Prada styles, and they’re very well-loved by the brand’s fans and shoppers. I certainly count myself among that group; if I had it my way, I’d own a rainbow of these bags in every size offered.

Below, we have an intimate look at two of the most iconic bags of Prada’s lineup. In addition to that, I have the pleasure of being among the first to tell you all about the new Prada shoulder straps!

Prada Galleria Bag

Founded in 1913 by Mario Prada (Miuccia Prada’s grandfather) in Milan, Prada opened its first store in the prestigious Galleria Vittorio Emanuele. The Prada Galleria Bag was named after the store that started it all, and the bag holds a similarly foundational spot in the brand’s handbag array.

This bag is immediately recognizable as Prada, and although some people confuse it with the Prada double Bag, it has been around far longer. The Galleria shape is clean and sleek, typically using Saffiano leather, which is hot pressed to achieve the crosshatch texture you see and feel. because of the longevity of Saffiano leather, Prada has used this water-repellant, scratch-resistant material for decades, and the finish style is often associated with Prada because the brand’s artisans perfected it. While the bags we photographed (as well as many of the Galleria bags on the market) are made of Saffiano leather, there is also City Calf version, which is luscious and slightly softer, which gives this bag a more laid-back vibe.

The Galleria bag holds its shape nicely and is ideal daily use, including in the office. The shape quickly turned into a brand essential for Prada, and many flock to it because of its highly functional interior structure: one large opening, flanked by two zipper-closed pockets at the front and back, all of which run the full length of the sac. The main interior compartment features three inside pockets, one with a zipper, and the body of the bag can be snapped on either side to pinch the top of the bag together to further secure the interior.

Every season, Prada reintroduces this bag in a variety of colors and styles based on that season’s theme. This allows countless options and reinterpretations, which makes this bag a classic, iconic wardrobe staple.

Prada double Bag

Introduced in 2013, the Prada double Bag quickly became a favorite. much like the Galleria Bag, the double is reinterpreted every season in colors and fabrications based on the style of the season.

While the Galleria Bag offers a bit more structure, especially because of the full body pockets on the front and back of the bag, the double is more minimal and lightweight. The Saffiano leather on the exterior is paired with smooth Nappa leather inside, and Prada has made the potential color combinations one of the most fun aspects of the design. While many double Bags do offer tone-on-tone leathers on the exterior and interior, there are plenty of contrasting combinations that blend the inside and out in an unexpected way. It’s one of my favorite aspects of this bag, and I love seeing what Prada comes up with to make each design stand out a bit more than the last.

The double Bag offers an internal divider wiUn buzunar de clapetă, care permite o organizare mai ușoară și ajută la separarea pungii în două compartimente interioare principale. Îmi place acest design; Împărțitorul aruncă o privire atunci când transportați geanta și, dacă aveți o culoare interioară contrastantă, o puteți vedea pop.

În timp ce Galleria și pungile duble au asemănările lor care le fac atât de inconfundabil Prada, există diferențe care ar putea face cu ușurință una sau alta mai bună pentru viața ta. Dacă încercați să decideți între cele două, sunt fericit să vă orientez în direcția corectă în comentariile de mai jos!

Curele de umăr Prada
Prada Black Cutre cu flori Pink Plex – 1095 USD

Prada Blue & Black Saffiano curea cu flori de cristal – 1170 USD

Sunt foarte încântat că trebuie să fim printre primii care au făcut vestea noilor curele de umăr Prada. Deși ambele genți de mai sus oferă curele de umăr opționale în piele de Saffiano, potrivită, brandul oferă acum o modalitate de a -ți personaliza geanta și de a -ți arăta personalitatea cu o curea de umăr care îți vorbește și se află în afară de restul geantei.

Prada Black Cutre, Flori Albe/Galbene – 800 USD | Prada curea albă, flori roz/alb – 925 USD

Am văzut multe curele de umăr în ultimii ani și vă pot spune că aceste curele Prada sunt unele dintre cele mai frumoase aspect și calitate pe care le-am văzut. Mi -a plăcut să mă îmbrac fiecare pungă diferit cu o curea și fiecare a transformat geanta. În timp ce o curea cu aplicații florale din piele supradimensionată se simte jucăușă, cureaua cu înfrumusețări de cristal Swarovski face o declarație atrăgătoare. Noua colecție de curele de umăr vă permite să adăugați instantaneu o notă personală la geantă.

Curelele sunt vândute separat și vin în piele de vițel, saffiano și nastro, cu toate modelele florale cu un efect 3D conceput din cristale, plexiglas, rășină sau piele. Curelele sunt acum disponibile exclusiv la buticurile Prada Broadway și Prada 5th Avenue din New York și vor fi disponibile online până la sfârșitul lunii.
