Prada

Quick history

Prada was founded in Milan in 1913 as a luxury leather goods house and later evolved into one of the most influential fashion brands in the world under Miuccia Prada. Known for its intellectual, sometimes subversive approach to style, Prada challenged traditional ideas of beauty by mixing minimalism, oddness, and high fashion. The brand became famous for turning simple nylon bags, unconventional tailoring, and unexpected color combinations into powerful cultural statements.
