Prada is a name that everyone knows. To own a Prada handbag elevated your social status a notch instantly. It was Mario Prada who started this company in 1913, with simple but elegant designs. Although Prada had two stores in Milan, his clientele was throughout the entire world. When the company first started, its main product was a very heavy walrus skinned suitcase that was inappropriate for airline travel because of its weight. Prada had an idea for a lighter easier to carry bag, and the Prada leather suitcase was made. Soon, Prada was designing leather handbags and accessories that would have the socially elite scrambling to get one. Mario Prada was extremely successful in his designs for several years, each product line that was introduced was exquisite and an instant success. People of all social levels scarmbled to purchase a Prada handbag. In 1978, Miuccia Prada became the CEO of the company and being the granddaughter of Mario, she had the fashion sense to keep the company going strong. Many felt that Miuccia Prada was did not have the qualifications or the experience to run the Prada company but she proved them all wrong. Although the Prada name was known throughout the world for its quality handbags and accessories, in the late 1970's, the company had already been struggling for several years. With competitors like Gucci and other famous names, sales had declined considerably. When Miuccia married her husband, business sales began to increase. This was due to the ingenious thinking of both Miuccia and her husband Patrick Bertelli. They began to perfect a whole new look for the Prada Company. Prada had been making black backpacks out of nylon since the 1970's. She and her husband expanded on this idea in 1985 to create the first handbag in the style of a backpack. This was an overnight sensation. Once again people of all social status' were flocking to buy a Prada handbag. In 1989, Prada designed a line of clothing that was simple but elegant made out of luxurious fabrics and earthy colors. Again, the Prada company product line soared, and the fashion world took notice. By 1990, Prada was once again on the top of the fashion industry. Designing product line after product line of instant successes. Prada started out as a company that designed heavy steamer trunks and bags and today it is one of the leading designers in the fashion industry. Imagine.
