About Prada
Prada moved from luggage into fashion in 1984 with a black nylon backpack made from a military parachute fabric, an unglamorous material sold at luxury prices, which became the defining gesture of the brand's intellectual approach to fashion. The house was founded in Milan in 1913 and is still led by the founder's granddaughter.
