Archive Bags from 1914 Still Scandalizing

“Among the items I'm fortunate enough to view when I am received on via Fogazzaro, there are also leather goods and evening bags that are quite extraordinary. They are over a hundred years old and still scandalize.”

“There’s one in particular that conveys how avant-garde Fratelli Prada was: it’s a black handbag with a white ivory clasp shaped like a human face that mocks you. It's the face of a Japanese warrior sticking out his tongue. The bag is so modern that it is reproduced for the Spring-Summer 2024 collection, exactly one hundred and ten years after its original creation, readapting its materials.”
