One of the most influential designer companies

Mario Prada founded Prada Brothers in 1913. When Miuccia Prada inherited the company she steared it away from leather goods to an actual Haute Couture designers company.

Prada, today, is one of the most influential companies in the fashion world. With fame comes a different set of problems. It's easy to find a replica prada handbag for a fraction of the cost (Check out the replica prada 2009 new bags or replica prada fairy bag for example). A prada guru will probably see the difference, but not your average person.

During the existence of the company, Prada bought several other labels and companies, but most were sold after some time due to big losses or incompatibility with the Prada philosophy.

Prada philosophy 

Clothing should express what women feel, that's prada's philosophy.
This results in Prada and Miu Miu clothing do be exceptionally wearable and without a focus of sex appeal but rather on quality, craftsmanship and ease of wear.

Miuccia Prada once said she doesn't put her focus on inventing but rather rethinks the company's traditions in a different way, and so she creates collections after collections of innovative designs.
Fashion at its best.
