Fashion Designers of all time

Miuccia Prada

One of our favorite italian fashion designers, Miuccia Prada was once a member of the Italian Communist Party and a mime student. She was an unlikely entrepreneur when she took over her familys luggage business in 1978. She first dazzled the fashion world in 1985 with a series of black nylon handbags and backpacks. Prada is now a billiondollar company. Beginning with Pradas first readytowear collection in 1989, she established a techno minimalism based on pareddown design, innovative fabrics, and computerenhanced patterns that have become influentially iconic.
