Prada Mainline Signature Nylon Parka
Prada Mainline Signature Nylon Parka
Before Miuccia Prada took over the fashion house in the late 1970s, Prada had not been much different from other luxury brands with their products, solely offering a range of luxury leather goods. Miuccia decided to experiment with different materials in order to give Prada a fresh look (Leather had been the most used material by fashion houses at the time). In 1979, Miuccia introduced the first range of bags constructed from a heavy duty nylon material, which had been labelled as an ‘anti-luxury’ material. These ‘anti-luxury’ luxury bags instantly became a hit. Prada later expanded into clothing in the 90s, continuing the use of Nylon in their designs, and have never looked back.
This piece is constructed from Prada signature tight weave nylon on the exterior with high quality nylong and fleece lining for warmth. There are 2 standard dump pockets and hand pockets on the chest. There are pockets on the interior lining and hidden buttons along the zip.
Great condition with minor signs of wear and age. One missing button on the pocket.
