Prada F/W 2004 Lizard & Crocodile Crystal Embellished Skipper Shoulder Bag

Muccia Prada, the visionary behind the Italian house of Prada, is known for her subversive approach to fashion. Describing her creative process as “always trying to go against the rules, the cliché” in an interview for Vogue, Muccia has consistently created unique designs that feel contemporary years after their debut.

According to Muccia, the Prada 2004 Fall/Winter collection “…was a dream of extreme romanticism,” inspired by “the idea of eighteenth-century painting, with video games.” This dream materialized as an array of bejeweled fifties silhouettes and futuristic prints, seamlessly merging past and future ideas of beauty.

As seen on that season’s runway, this Prada by Miuccia Prada shoulder bag is a striking statement piece. Crafted from yellow lizard leather with black crocodile leather trim, it showcases a bold contrast of textures. The front is adorned with intricate Strass stone jeweled detailing, adding an opulent touch, while the silver-tone hardware and front clasp closure provide a sleek and polished finish. Designed for versatility, it features a removable shoulder strap, allowing it to be styled as either a shoulder bag or a clutch. The interior is lined with black calfskin leather and includes an inner zipper pocket for added functionality.

In good condition with some relaxing to the shape, wrinkling to leather and light wear throughout.
