Miuccia Prada, known for her eclectic color patterns and designs has reimagined the Galleria bag in different colors and hides. From a two-color design to one adorned with chevrons, squares, or curves of contrasting shades, each bag opens the possibility of a fresh way to play with the iconic Galleria shape.
