The tangible joy and distinct air of lightness associated with the holiday season are hard to replicate at any other time throughout the year. With endless celebrations filled with cheer, the excitement of dressing up increases dramatically when the holiday season rolls around, and few brands celebrate that unmistakable feeling like Prada.
For the 2024 season, the Prada Holiday Collection delights once again with an array of bags, clothing, and accessories designed to celebrate the season. The special edit includes sophisticated tailoring with details that nod to the season’s festivities, like bows, shearling, and crystal. If you want to add a few special pieces to your wardrobe, Prada will outfit you in an ensemble perfect for any holiday gathering.
Special Touches Elevate a Prada Classic
Of course, there is an array of noteworthy bags to round out the selection with new and old silhouettes that will entice. The Prada Arqué, which has quickly become a new House classic, sees exciting updates this season with novelty materials and more classic options alike.
Offering a distinctly Prada appeal, the curved lines and half-moon shape of the Arqué strike the perfect balance of classic and contemporary. Still, the shape has a minimalist allure, which acts as the perfect canvas for reinvention, and this season’s new offerings are some of Prada’s best yet.
For those who love novelty, there are fun options like an Arqué trimmed with soft shearling and a leopard-printed iteration that feels very of the moment.
Craving a bit of shine? You’ll love the attention-grabbing Prada Arqué in shiny Naplak Patent leather, which feels festive without screaming holiday, so you can wear it all year long.
Let’s Accessorize
My personal favorite is the Cocoa Brown Arqué, which offers the luxe appeal of soft suede that many of us have been drawn to this season. Various Prada Tricks join the line-up this season as well, speaking to the playful side of the House.
Bags are meant to be an extension of ourselves and our personal style, and the option of adding a charm furthers that sentiment. An assortment of bear bag charms will add a fun flair to the Arqué and act as the perfect buddy for your bag.
The Prada Teddy is an iconic symbol for the House, and this season, there are a myriad of versions to pick from. While they are irresistibly cute clipped onto the Arqué, you can also wear the bag alone for a more classic appeal.
Bags aside, there are countless ways to style your holiday look, and whether you prefer something more relaxed or refined, this collection offers it all. A crisp white poplin shirt dress with a crystal-adorned collar and hem pairs perfectly with classic feminine ballets featuring the iconic Prada triangle.
Speaking of the Prada triangle, the storied logo appears throughout the collection on a range of matching separates, adding a subtle hint of Prada heritage to your holiday look.

Whoever says bag charms are dumb, are NOT fashionable people 🤪 Bag charms and the idea of personalization are the best thing to happen to fashion recently! 👜✨️
Can we all just agree that some people like charms and should use them and others don’t and shouldn’t? It would save a lot of time and trouble 🙄
Agree 💯 !
Everyone has their own personal style and taste.
The world would be a boring place if we all like the same thing.
Well, I suppose if you’re only interested in practical bags, you could always skip the ‘trinkets’ and go for the one that doubles as a lunchbox. But hey, some of us like a little extra sparkle with our receipts!
Love the patent and shearling Arqué but hanging charms just cheapens the look of any bag.
More crap hanging off handbags. No thank you. I have no desire to spend hundreds on trinkets.
“Fair enough, but those ‘trinkets’ are just the accessories that take your bag from ‘functional’ to ‘fashion statement.’ After all, a little charm never hurt anyone—unless you’re still rocking the plain black tote from 2010.”
The suede one I love!!
