Founded nearly a century ago,the House of Prada is recognized around the world for its simple and eye-catching creations.
Mario Prada started the Prada label in 1913. He designed and sold luggage,handbags,and shoes in two small stores in Milan,Italy,and had customers across Europe and the US. When the big-name Prada suitcase,made from heavy walrus (海象) skin,proved unsuitable for aif travel,Prada concentrated on designing excellent leather goods and waterproof handbags.
In 1978,Mario's granddaughter,Miuccia Prada who was clearly fashion-conscious,took over the company. The label was well known as a leather goods manufacturer,but had been struggling financially for several years. It looked like it was going to continue to do so. There was competition from other fashion houses like Gucci,but Miuccia turned the business around and brought the House of Prada into the? world of haute couture (高級時裝) .
Miuccia had been making jet-black waterproof backpacks since 1970,out of a nylon fabric called “Pocone”. She produced the classic Prada handbag which was simple,black nylon,and in 1985 it became a worldwide hit. The bag was functional,practical -and fashionable. The high price tag that accompanied the handbags was bound to encourage other companies to make similar cheaper bags in order to take advantage of the market. This only helped to make the genuine Prada articles more in demand.
In 1989,Prada hit the fashion shows with its ready-to-wear collection of elegant,simple clothing. The fashion world took notice,and Prada's popularity soared(飛漲) .By the beginning of the 1990s,it was clear that Prada was going to be the leading force in fashion. Luxurious fabrics and simple styles,mostly in basic colours such as black,brown,grey and cream became the typical Prada look.
In 1992,Miuccia created the more affordable Miu Miu line,aimed at younger buyers,followed by,the Prada Sport label,a line of men，s wear and a lingerie(女士內(nèi)衣) collection.
Although the Prada look has developed over the years,and Miuccia has introduced many innovations(創(chuàng)新) in fabric and design,the quality of the finished product has never changed.
