This bag is so beautiful! I saw the hobo IRL and the leather is TDF!!!!!
The red is so perfect too!

You'd be amazed at what is on sale there...I am dying to go back

Basically the shop is on two floors (it is big!) and downstairs they have about 4 tables with sale items on there. There is a bit of everything: a few Nylon bags but also Logo Jacquards hobos, lots of clutches...There are also plenty of shoes and clothes but that was way over my budget

It is absolutely amazing how great the sales are over there : some items were on -60% !

This is so true, I purchased two bags there in March of 07. The Prada store in the Duomo shopping area was amazing!! It sounds like this is the store you are reffering to. The downstairs had incredible deals! One of the bags I purchased was on the sale tables downstairs and when I came home and researched it I realized I had gotten about 60% off!! I wonder if they do any online business?

Yes thats the one !!!! It is the shop in the Vittorio Emanuele Galeria :)
I was hoping that they'd do similar sales online but i think they realised that their servers would blow up if they did

It is truly a place to go to for Prada lovers, the discounts are crazy and you get plenty of models to choose from

I actually went home yesterday and searched for my receipts to see if I sould find a phone number for this same reason!! No luck. Also, when I was there NONE of the sales associates spoke english, I had to have my hubby translate for me. I need to learn Italian quick! This store really is amazing. I wonder if they ship to the U.S and how would that work with customs?

I was there in June and i was lucky, the sale assistant actually spoke English :)

The address and phone numbers are :

5, VIA DELLA SPIGA 20100 MILAN, Tel. + 0039 (0)276014448

Let me know how you get on!
