The bag is pinkish, but the handles are purple actually. The bag is not very big but not very small either, square shape (rather odd I must say, but I think it's just nice for diapers bag LOL). It looks quite nice for me with gold hardware. Both sides have small compartments for cards/small items.

Here are some pics:

This is definitely a collectors item! I got both styles in both colorways at full price!!!

This is actually part of Miuccia's beginning of re-releasing her archive of fabrics. She started in 08 with the Tessuto Fioco bags (she did a limited edition of them in Japan/SoHo and Beverley Hills). It was in the fabric swatches that she did in the skirts featured in Waist Down.

This was called " Temple' " (not pronounced temple, but templee). This was featured in the A/I '04. It was also the collection that debuted the "Washed Bag" and the Robot tricks that made Prada a cult following to new generations.

I love love love these bags. Note this shape of bag was also a classic model, she utilized these shapes in the Resort 2009 collection.

Dern I erased all my pix of Joanna's pix of S/S bags on sale but she had several of these bags on sale, but in the larger tote model.

You're the best locogymman w/ giving us great info, and always on target. Joanna went to Asia last year, and came back w/ the LE Tessuto Fioco bag that couldn't be purchased here. I loved it when she showed me the pix but she couldn't find it anywhere in the states :-(
