Prada Clothing Section:
The Prada label began in 1913 with Mario Prada who sold shoes, leather handbags and trunks. He opened two boutiques in Milan after previous experience in Europe and U.S.A.
The classic Prada suitcase was made of heavy walrus skin but as plane travel made heavy suitcases impractical, the company started to make lighter bags and high quality items made of crystals, tortoise shell and wood. They also sold garments of waterproof fabrics to the U.S. However the company had gone into decline in the 1970's.
Today Prada offer an extensive and highly exclusive designer range.
