Prada Bowler Handbag

Megs · May 18th, 2007, 02:11 PM

Prada hit huge with their Grauffre bags and is still trying to keep a good thing going. Introducing slightly antiqued and shaded pebbled leather, Prada has released a variety of Bowler Handbags. Neiman Marcus has the natural tan version of the Prada Leather Bowler which will be available in the next few months. This bag is sure to be a hit, sporting antiqued pebbled leather along with gold tone hardware and a removable chain shoulder strap. Available for pre-order via Neiman Marcus for $2050. Prada appears to feel confident that the Bowler's will be one of the next huge trends, therefor they have created different renditions. My favorite versions are the Prada Patchwork with fringe (can be seen below). Typically, I would not be drawn to a fringe bag, but the fringe strap is just enough and makes this bag overly fashionable and chic. What do you think, Fab or Drab?

I LOVE the grey bowler!! I love the shape of these bags. I am not big on the brown one because its too western, and the fringe bags are out of the question.

Wooow, all are great, but the grey bowler really rocks!
Gorgeous bags.

I have always loved the bowler shape on a handbag. These Pradas are gorgeous, except, I don't care for fringe. It's just not my style, but I can see where others would adore it!

The shaded leather is really cool, are they the first major company to do that? It's such a great idea.

Draaab! Sorry prada, it's not my taste. And I think the stamped on logo is totally unneccessary.

Love the bowler..fringe doesn't work for me...

HAAATTTEEEE THE FRINGE. Not feeling it.

SonyaPhi · May 18th, 2007, 08:10 PM

Love the bags they are gorgeous! The fringe gives it that extra flair I love it!

Pursegrrl · May 18th, 2007, 08:56 PM

Absolutely gorgeous...without the fringe!

Love that gray bowler, don't love the price so much...

ViciousBliss · May 18th, 2007, 10:17 PM

please don't torture me like this. i never liked a prada bag before, and was happy to stay away from Gucci, Dior, Prada, LV, etc etc, and try to stick to things like dooney, kooba, and coach... you're making this very difficult, and i don't like you right now.

this bag... omg.
