Prada’s Shoulder straps (as seen in the FW16 campaign)have landed! Sold separately, they all have one thing in common: floral patterns with a three-dimensional effect made from crystals, plexiglas, resin, or leather in either Calfskin (shown above), Saffiano or Nastro leather.

Nastro Leather

Saffiano Leather

Okay so I know that most of you are thinking that Fendi is the originator of this idea was derived from the Strap You. Well while that may be so, I believe that many more brands will soon follow suit, because it’s a rather nice touch to liven up our bags, not to mention, an especially great way in which we could give our Classics a nice modern twist. Perhaps this is why these Prada shoulder straps are designed with the Double, Galleria (also popularly known as the Saffiano Lux), Canapa, and Giardiniera bags in mind.
