Why isn’t anyone talking about the Prada arque?

[fashion16]

I have seen pics online and nothing really impressed me until I saw it in person over the weekend.

I woman walked into the restaurant I was in carrying this bag and my friend told me I gasped out loud….i haven’t had that reaction to a bag in a long time.

I don’t see much talk about it on the forum. Why? Thoughts on this bag?

I feel like the influencer activation for this bag did not go as planned, while some are also fatigued by the crescent silhouette. Polene also has the same bag / Numéro Dix at a fraction of the cost.

This is the number one bag on my wishlist at the moment. I think it’s adorable. I loved it even more when I saw it in person. The leather is really soft and I like having the crossbody option. Glad someone else likes it!

On the shorter setting, the strap makes the bag into a perfect circle. Sounds strange just typing it but it is striking in person.

What a really cute bag. How much does it retail for?

It’s a bit overpriced at $2700.00 but I bought it using a cash back service and got 15% cash back so saved $400.00

I tried this bag on and loved it! I do worry it will look super dated and it won't stand the test of time.

I also am not a fan of how the shoulder strap looks when worn crossbody.

It looks striking on the shoulder or handheld imo

Thanks for the perspective. Why do you think it will eventually look dated?

I actually don't think it will. I think that is my personal concern as to why I'm not 100% sure if I'll get this purse for myself yet.

My concern is the crescent shape will look dated in a few years but I would love to be convinced otherwise.

I think this purse looks very chic and striking. I still might end up getting it in black not sure yet

I also gasped the first time I saw this. It was on a YouTube video. It wasn’t on my radar at all and now I’m convinced I want to buy it when I go to Italy this summer. I’m also worried about the bag looking dated in a few years, but I’m not sure that will stop me. It’s just so unique and stunning!

Just bought it in Italy. It’s much cheaper.

That’s why I want to buy it when we go. Which color did you get? What are your first impressions?

I bought the cognac and it’s gorgeous. I did not go to Prada expecting to fall in love with it. The leather feels sumptuous and it‘s leather lined as well.

Oh yay!! That makes me so happy to hear. That is the color I’m wanting to purchase as well. Enjoy your bag!

Just want to add that I am still in Italy and have seen quite a few in the wild. It’s gorgeous in black and travertino too.
