Fashion Houses - High-End Clothing

Located on the shopping avenue of Pařížská is the Prague Prada boutique. Brothers Mario and Martino Prada founded Prada, an Italian fashion label that specializes in luxury goods in 1913 in Milan, Italy.

The Prada Brothers or Fratelli Prada was the name of the shop where the brothers sold their high quality leather goods, imported trunks and purses. It wasn’t until the granddaughter of Mario; Miuccia Prada inherited the company that the brand would become a household name. Miuccia and Patrizio Bertelli, an Italian who started his own leather goods company when he was 17 years old, joined forces and developed the house of Prada. Their first commercial success would be due to a set of backpacks and totes created in 1979, which would go on to become a hit. A shoe line was added in 1984 and in 1985 the classic Prada handbag was released and became the new must have for all fashion lovers. The handbag, both practical and sturdy was also sleek and elegant with quality Italian craftsmanship to boot; this was to become Prada’s signature luxurious style. A ready to wear fashion collection for women was released in 1989 and the house of Prada was in fact, born. The popularity of the company soared due to their clean lines, neutral colors and rich fabrics. If you wish to stand out in the fashion crowd wearing elegant, feminine and classic clothing, Prada is a top choice for you.
