For Fall 2020, Prada Looks to Its Archive for Inspiration

A 1940s silhouette is reimagined in a modern classic. [updated]

There’s a lot of buzz surrounding Prada right now. Coming off the heels of their fall 2020 runway show, in a move that shocked many, over the weekend Prada announced that Raf Simons would be joining Miuccia Prada as co-creative director. While that news is groundbreaking it’s not enough to steal the spotlight away from Prada’s newest collection. We’re all eyes for Prada’s newest bags and we’re giving you a look at the brand’s fall 2020 bags straight from the runway.

Overall this collection is sleek and chic, with Ms. Prada putting an emphasis on classic shapes that will stand the test of time in any fashion lover’s closet. The new, but old Luisa bag, which is a reinterpreted version of a 1940s classic, is the perfect example of this. Designed to appear modern, yet classic, the Luisa features clean lines which emphasize the bag’s lengthy silhouette and unique proportions. Shown above in red and below in black, with a monochromatic logo, the Luisa is a minimalists dream.

Prada’s classic Galleria, which was also seen for Fall/Winter 2020 on the Men’s runway, appeared in three new colors as well, easily identifiable by its iconic hang tag. Other standout silhouettes from the show include the brand’s new Daino soft bags, which are a slouchy, soft take on the the original. Then, there’s the Pattine — a small saffiano and smooth calfskin flap bag. This compact and structured new shape features gusseted accordion-like sides and an iconic triangular closure. View all of the bags below.

Why is the same ad appearing 5 times in this article? Is PurseBlog paid for each appearance?

Hm it is not popping up like that on my screen. I think the particular ad that is popping up on your screen might be glitching

Why does it matter if the same ad keeps appearing? I’m assuming that they need ads to sustain their blog to allow us to be able to enjoy it, free of charge. I’m also assuming that you do something to make money to support you and/or your family. This is what they do and it’s a creative and fun way to make money, or at least I see it that way. If fact, I was too busy to notice the ads because I was looking at the bags. Don’t be so critical, just enjoy!

Those bracelet-bags look like ankle monitors on criminals

I had no idea what you were talking about until I went back and looked since, at first glance, I assumed they were watches. I’m always focused on the handbags and rarely look at anything else, including the article, because the bags speak for themselves. I should probably be more observant!
