Prada Handbags 101: A Guide to Shopping Their Iconic Bags, From the Galleria to the Re-Nylon Backpack

Talk to a mathematician or an architect and they’ll tell you the triangle is the strongest, most powerful shape. Ask any fashion-minded individual and they’ll say the very same—especially if it’s flipped upside down, is stamped with "dal 1913," and adorns a Prada handbag.

According to the Italian maison, the triangle’s reputation precedes it: “Precise, direct, meaningful, it is a shape that resonates without words.” While it was Prada’s founder, Mario Prada (grandfather of Miuccia), who first used the tri-cornered shape, it was undoubtedly Miuccia who helped embed it into popular culture via her global ready-to-wear (and now pastries! ) label.

The Best Prada Handbags

• Galleria - debuted in 2007
• Cleo - debuted in Multiple Views Spring/Summer 2021 collection  
• Re-Nylon Backpack - debuted in 1984, returned with Re-Nylon in 2019
• Nappa Antique Tote - debuted Spring/Summer 2023 collection  
• Re-Edition 1995 - debuted Fall/Winter 1995 collection
• Re-Edition 2005 - debuted c. 2005, returned with Re-Nylon in 2019
• Prada Moon - debuted Spring/Summer 2002 collection

Beginning in 1913, Mario and his brother Martino—the Fratelli Prada, as they were known—operated a leathergoods and luggage emporium out of Milan’s Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II shopping pavilion. The store, stocked with a combination of made-in-Italy bags and travel trunks imported from England, catered to the well-heeled locals, including the country’s aristocrats. At the time, Prada earned the honor of being an “Official Supplier of the Italian Royal Household.”

It wasn’t until Miuccia took over the business, however (prior to Miuccia’s creative leadership, the label was helmed by her mother, Luisa, for nearly 20 years), that Prada became what it is today. Like the triangle, Prada needs no introduction; its success has largely been attributed to Miuccia’s advocacy for “ugly chic” and the designer’s feminist philosophies, informed by her Ph.D. in political science from the University of Milan. (She also, iconically, studied pantomime.)

“I’m always trying to do something that is…never to please men in the most banal way,” Muiccia told WWD in 2013. It’s this exact sort of thinking that led Miuccia to fancy nylon, a workaday fabric with primarily utilitarian applications, over silk and leather (“Suddenly, nylon started to look more intriguing to me than couture fabrics,” Miuccia has said). She introduced her Vela backpack in 1984, and the rest is fashion handbag history. All about the Vela, and all of the most iconic Prada handbags, below.

Spend 15 minutes on fashion TikTok and you’ll be convinced that the aughts were a great time in fashion—especially for Prada. The decade birthed some of the maison’s best-known bags, examples so incredible they’ve been reintroduced and remixed several times over. In 2007 Miuccia introduced the Galleria, a rectangular bag crafted in elegantly textured Saffiano leather (a material patented by Mario Prada) with two top handles, two zipper closures, and another compartment in between. Today, the bag consists of 83 hand-finished pieces. Named after the gleaming Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II that housed the first-ever Prada boutique, the elegant bag was bound to find a permanent place within Prada’s delightfully crowded hall of handbag fame. For spring 2023, Prada reimagined its classic bag—the rectangular shape offering a blank canvas for artistic intervention—with splashes of pop colors. The special-edition bags were introduced in a campaign by conceptual artist Alex Da Corte starring Scarlett Johansson, and have already appeared on the arms of Katie Holmes, Gabrielle Union, and Karlie Kloss.

Relatively new on the Prada handbag scene is the Cleo, a satchel with a youthful spirit and curved lines that seem to bounce with energy. Crafted in brushed calfskin and lightweight spazzolato calf leather (a glossy leather slightly less slick than patent), the Cleo first captured our attention on the arms of the models who walked in the Multiple Views spring/summer 2021 womenswear collection (a year shy of Raf Simons’ appointment as co-creative director). Currently, the Cleo is offered in inky black, milky whites, and a powdery pistachio hue. Of course, it also comes in a bedazzled iteration for those who want something that can catch the light a bit more. Two silhouettes (a flap style or one with an interior snap closure) make Cleo twice as nice.

Then-teenage millennials might have first been introduced to this bag in the 1999 rom-com 10 Things I Hate About You. (“I like my Skechers, but I love my Prada backpack.”) Lucky for them, they’d soon be able to shop the bag in a new fabrication: a synthetic nylon textile called Econyl, which is woven from recycled, purified plastic material collected from the ocean. Dubbed the Re-Nylon Backpack since its reintroduction in 2019, the style was originally known as the Vela and represented the first application of Miuccia’s ingenious impulse to embrace the utilitarian textile. She did to nylon what Gabrielle Chanel did to jersey, and now it features heavily across all of Prada’s categories—from midi-skirts to puffed-up boots and sneakers. The Re-Nylon Backpack is currently offered in regular and medium sizes, and it’s just as lovable as it was back then.

Nappa Antique Tote

A tote bag is an essential. Thankfully, Mrs. Prada tends to give her patrons a roomy one in a novel textile every couple of seasons. There’s a padded Re-Nylon and a coveted crochet iteration that’s been slung on the arms of It girls for the past two summers, and as of spring 2023, there’s also a version in a crinkly nappa antique leather. Created using a labor-intensive process that involves wrinkling the material by hand, this handbag is about as Prada as it gets—epitomizing the brand’s transmogrification of the disagreeable into the downright gorgeous. In a variety of saturated leather dyes, the bag comes in two (small and medium) “portrait-oriented bags and one (large) “landscape”-oriented bag.

Re-Edition 1995

Glossy like the pages of Vogue , this demure top-handle bag was first debuted in Prada’s fall 1995 collection. Structured like the Galleria but fabricated in a brushed leather textile, it has recently regained attention as a favorite of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy’s. It also encapsulates the extreme understatedness of the ’90s and tickles the current fancy for all things minimalist. Offered with an interior zippered compartment and two other open compartments, the Re-Edition 1995—which comes in a delicious cherry red, a slick black, and powdery blue and pink—is quietly becoming a Prada favorite. Sometimes the bags that make the biggest statement are the ones that whisper chic.

By now, you’ll have realized that Mrs. Prada mines her own archive for inspiration just like the rest of us. In late 2019, Prada reprised two of its beloved bags—the Re-Edition 2000 and the Re-Edition 2005—only the second time around, the nylon used was Econyl, a novel textile spun from recycled ocean plastics, fishing nets, and textile waste. This Saffiano leather trimmed-shoulder bag comes with a few extras: a woven shoulder strap, a removable chain strap, and a removable Re-Nylon zipper pouch with a Re-Edition keychain. Youthful, long-lasting, and free-spirited, it’s a bag that had Hailey Bieber, Sofia Richie, and Lori Harvey all swooning.

Like the moon itself, fashion has phases—and we’re in one now that just loves a moon bag. Several luxury houses have released their take, but Prada’s is one with a bit of history. The newest iteration of the Prada Moon revisits a style that first debuted in the maison’s spring 2002 collection and is fashioned in either a Re-Nylon base or a puffed-up nappa leather. A gleaming rectangular silver buckle and grommets, “borrowed from the sailing world,” add a bit of aughty edge to the accessory.

The label's sophisticated new carryall is the in-flight companion you'll want to have with you well after touching down.

We’ve all heard the “It’s about the journey” thing, but let’s face it—it’s the destination. Shuffling through security and getting cracked in the elbow by the beverage cart feels worth it when you’re heading somewhere spectacular. So next time you’re preparing for a big trip, make sure you’ve got the gear to match. Ditch the hyperfunctional, many-pocketed backpack and opt for a bag that works on the plane and when you land. Prada’s leather carryall is large enough to hold your laptop, headphones, and every other in-flight essential but sleek and stylish enough that you’ll want to bring it with you after checking in at the hotel. And if by some poor stroke of luck you’re going somewhere less than spectacular? Well, at least you’ve got a damn good bag to keep you company.

While you can find several bags with specific shoe compartments, the unique design of the CALPAK Luka Duffel stands out. The exterior zippered compartment makes it easy to reach your spare pair whether you're ready to put your walking shoes on or you need to access that pair of flats after a business meeting. When not needed, the shoe compartment lays flat on the interior of the bag to give you more room for your weekend getaway essentials.

Constructed with a lightweight polyester, the bag is structured but not bulky. There are nine pockets (including the shoe pocket), along with a trolley sleeve, two shoulder-length handles and a removable carrying strap.

To say I love this bag is an understatement. I bought it a couple of years ago for my wedding, and it's been a go-to ever since.

The quilted material makes it especially lightweight as well as washable. Note that this same style in performance twill is slightly smaller, at 20 x 12.5 x 11.5 inches.

I love the simplicity of this bag. It holds everything I need, and after more than a decade of use (and several trips through the washing machine), it's still in excellent condition. – Amanda Norcross

Leilani Osmundson | U.S. News

Price: $245 or less

The stylish yet durable Dagne Dover Landon Neoprene Carryall Bag in the extra-large size stores 35 liters of belongings and comes with a shoe bag, a detachable mesh pouch and a crossbody strap. If that's not enough, you'll find several mesh pockets inside for organization, including a zippered laptop sleeve that can fit most 16-inch laptops. On the exterior of the bag, the neoprene luggage sleeve is perfect for attaching the duffel to a rolling suitcase, and a small pocket above the handle can securely hold your phone or ID.

Plus, this duffel is a great choice when it comes to sustainable travel . The lining is made from recycled plastic water bottles, and the bag is 100% vegan. This weekender also comes in air mesh material.

I love the zippered shoe bag – which is big enough to fit a pair of small boots or a couple pairs of sandals – as well as buttons on the sides that allow the bag to be clipped down for more streamlined travel. Additionally, this weekender duffel is surprisingly lightweight for how durable it is. – Leilani Osmundson, Senior Digital Producer

Best with Laptop Compartment: July Carry All Weekender Plus

Price: $295 or less

On the exterior, there's a large front zippered pocket for reading materials, and the back features a hidden pocket behind the trolley sleeve for small items like your boarding pass or passport. For added versatility, the bag has two leather carrying handles and a removable shoulder strap.

This bag was a wow from the moment I opened it. The clamshell design makes packing a breeze. You can separate your clothes from other essentials and stow your laptop in its designated sleeve that is protected in the center of your bag. Since everything is divided, you can easily reach in to get your laptop out without spilling anything from your bag. – Rachael Hood

Travel tips, vacation ideas and more to make your next vacation stellar.

Price: $165 or less

From the laptop pocket to the trolley sleeve, this mini bag packs a punch. There's an exterior front pocket for reading material or your boarding pass, an interior compartment with room for two to three outfits, and a small exterior zippered compartment that works well for a phone charger or earbuds. This rolling bag fits perfectly under the seat on most planes (even the small regional jets) and can be trolleyed with a larger carry-on or checked bag for added convenience.

For a weekend getaway or quick business trip, this is my go-to bag. I can maximize the packing space with compression packing cubes , put my laptop in the interior sleeve and fit all the essentials in this compact rolling style. It works well as an underseater or it easily fits in the overhead bin. I'm on and off flights with ease! – Rachael Hood

Catriona Kendall | U.S. News

Price: $285 or less

This 2.0 version of the crowdfunded Pakt One is beloved for good reason, with a variety of useful organizational features. This carry-on duffel opens clamshell-style for easy packing, and a 16-inch padded laptop pocket separates the two main compartments. The 28L size of this bag may be able to fit under the seat on certain airlines if it's not fully packed, but at full capacity it is better suited to the overhead bin. If you want a bit more space, consider the 35L, which also fits carry-on size guidelines .

On one side of the exterior, a zippered pocket doubles as a luggage sleeve for attaching it to a suitcase; on the other side you'll find two zippered pockets, one of which has multiple smaller pockets and a key clip inside. Built-in accessory straps on top of the duffel allow you to secure bulkier items such as a jacket or tripod. There's also a hideaway side pocket for your water bottle that can be stashed when not in use. The duffel is made of recycled nylon with a water-resistant coating, and the company is committed to eco-conscious production, which includes plastic-free packaging.

I am super impressed by the thoughtful design of this weekender duffel. The organization is top-notch, and it folds up when not in use so it doesn't take up too much room. I've been able to fit around three to four days' worth of clothing, plus my toiletries, my laptop and a pair of shoes. The adjustable padded shoulder strap is pretty comfortable too. – Catriona Kendall, Editor

Price: $575 or less

This sophisticated style works well for business trips, weekend getaways and everything in between. This TUMI weekender is separated into two compartments. The upper compartment has a laptop sleeve (for an up to 13-inch PC or 14-inch MacBook), a removable interior water bottle holder, a large zippered pocket, a slip pocket and a key leash. The lower section is ideal for shoes or business documents; it can be reached through a zipper at the base of the upper compartment or accessed on the outside through a zipper. The exterior nylon shell has a front zippered pocket, a phone slip pocket and a trolley sleeve.

From the sleek exterior with contrasting metal hardware details, genuine leather accents, monogrammable leather charm and all the interior features, this bag perfectly blends function and elegance. It's rather lightweight, yet still holds a shape, and it can even be used as a work bag if needed. – Rachael Hood

Erin Evans | U.S. News

Price: From $59.98

For less than $60, the Steve Madden Quilted Weekender Bag is a steal. The lightweight bag has a quilted exterior and a spacious interior, which makes this weekender option an ideal carryall for travel, work or the gym. It includes a medium interior zippered pocket and two small open pockets, plus 9-inch handles and a removable 25-inch crossbody strap. It's easy to wipe down when dirty, or you can even throw it in the washer. What's more, this bag can easily be used as a personal item, neatly fitting under the seat on most planes.

I've had this bag for six years and it's still in great shape. It fits a surprising amount of clothing and accessories, and its straps are plenty long enough so even when it's filled to the brim, it's comfortable to carry around. – Erin Evans, Managing Editor

Price: $325 or less

This understated quilted duffel has a lightweight construction, a hidden back slip pocket, a trolley sleeve, a phone slip pocket and two large zippered front pockets on the outside. There's also a pocket on each end for water or other items. The interior of the MZ Wallace Nik Duffel has a padded 16-inch laptop sleeve, four slip pockets, a zippered pocket and a removable zippered pouch. The sleek quilted bag has Italian leather accents and provides a chic look for work or leisure trips. It also folds relatively flat for easy storage when you're not out exploring.

I've seen a lot of travelers with these bags over the years, and I can see why. I love the feel of this bag; it feels luxurious, yet it's not flashy or over the top – truly quiet luxury at its finest. I especially love the two large front zippered pockets, as you can put your 3-1-1 bag and other items you need to reach while traveling so you don't have to rifle through your whole bag in the security line. – Rachael Hood

Best Large: Lo & Sons The Catalina Supreme

Price: $350 or less

Flexible with a very large top opening design, this weekender bag works well for packing clothing and gear that may not fit well within a structured bag. The expandable bottom compartment has a removable divider for shoes or other items, and it can be accessed inside the bag or from the outside. There's a trolley sleeve, a removable shoulder strap and top carry handles depending on your needs. This large bag is great for weekend ski trips or bringing along your pillow . It can be a carry-on bag on most airlines, but it will need to go in the overhead compartment because of its size.

This bag works well for car trips, and it has space to pack for two people going on a weekend getaway. I really like the pliability of this bag, and I think it is a good choice for when I need to pack a pillow, a winter coat, cowboy boots, wrapped gifts or other larger items that don't necessarily fit in a small duffel. – Rachael Hood

Price: $155 or less

Constructed with 100% recycled nylon, this bag is ideal for travelers who are short on storage space. It folds flat into its storage pouch – which can be used for organization within the bag when traveling. The interior has a spacious zippered pocket for small items. The size of this bag is ideal for an overnight trip with room for toiletries, essentials and a full change of clothes. For a longer weekend trip, there's also the Niru 48H Weekender .

The size and quality of this bag are superior to other folding totes I've tried. It's very sturdy, the handles are comfortable to carry, the front slip pocket is convenient, and the leather details are a nice touch. – Rachael Hood

Also Recommended

LeSportsac Deluxe Large Weekender: Many travelers (our team included) love this bag. It's durable, offers several exterior and interior pockets, and folds down compactly when not in use.

Nomad Lane Bento Bag: This bag has exceptional organizational features (including a toiletry pouch and an electronics organizer), but it may be a little small for a weekender. If you want a personal item that fits under the plane seat, the Bento Bag is an excellent option for short trips or light packers.

Carl Friedrik Compact Weekender: Sophisticated yet understated, this nylon weekender bag with Italian leather trim is a classic travel bag. It is spacious and looks appropriate regardless of the setting. However, it does lack a luggage trolley sleeve, which makes it a bit limited in terms of carrying options.

Samsonite Virtuosa Weekender: This sleek and simple bag from the well-respected luggage brand is a solid choice, if slightly small for a weekend's worth of belongings. The Virtuosa Weekender has some convenient storage pockets and a luggage sleeve, but the strap can be a little uncomfortable when the bag is heavy.

How We Tested

Our team packed and tested more than 25 weekender bags from a variety of brands at a range of price points. We tested to see if you can pack for a weekend getaway in each bag, along with the durability, details and overall functionality. After taking these weekender bags on an array of car, plane and train trips, we've selected these weekender bags the best for 2024.
