Prada Handbag - For those who Love Fashion

This designer company has been around for a very long time and the name is synonymous with style and luxury. The first Prada handbag that was a huge success was manufactured in 1985 and since there was no looking back. Mario Prada was the founder and started off with a family luxury leather goods company in 1913. His granddaughter, famous Italian designer Miuccia Prada took over the family business in 1985 and turned it into a first class designer range. She also started the Miu Miu range in 1992 for younger consumers, which is affordable, but carries the same quality.

“I love fashion, but I think it should stay in its place, not rule your life. It’s a very nice part of your life, but I think it should be fun.” Miuccia’s words are quite true but you have to admit looking at and buying a Prada handbag is fun. Like many other top design houses such as Gucci, Chanel, Fendi etc Prada purses are imitated in large volumes and everyone would agree that paying the price for an authentic Prada purse and getting an imitation instead is criminal.

How does one differentiate the real handbags from the fake ones? By simply looking at the hardware, Prada prides itself by only using the best quality hardware available, and this is a rule with no exceptions. If you inspect the handbag make sure that the chain, zipper, clasps or buckle are not damaged or discolored in any way, as the material used by this company is the finest, no doubt. Be assured that they will never compromise on their quality.

When you inspect the handles of the bag know that they are one of the best in the industry. There should be no loose threads or frayed edges, if there is you know it’s counterfeit. Check the leather or material it is made of and see to it that it has no suspicious marks or signs of lesser quality. Remember if you pay for a Prada handbag you certainly deserve the real deal.
