Prada Fairy Bag - The Art of Fashion

Strangely this bag appeals to me too. Somehow it is so different from what Prada including the others have presented. I think that it´s a good Idea that the price is on that level. I wouldn´t want to forecast future,but it´s just a question of moments,when will see lookalike bags everywhere. That´s how it goes.

Mette- unfortunately you are right. Knock offs will start appearing on the streets before long. Sigh.......

I don't think I would carry this bag daily, but it is something I would want in my collection as a bag collector. To look at and admire, maybe even put in glass case as art in my office.

iI number 905 ! this is a beautiful bag ! I love prada , always have always will.

Two hours ago I had this bag in my hands at the Prada boutique on Rue Faubourg St. Honore. It is probably made of the softest leather I have ever felt. The design's colors are more vibrant than your picture represents. It is truly a work of art and should be worn with a very neutral outfit to show it off. Also beautiful and high art, are the shoes from Prada's Spring/Summer collection. Just amazing.

this is by far the most unique and beautiful bag I have seen in years.
and 2000 is what you would pay for a plain bag without the gorgeous art work

OMG...I LOVE THIS BAG!

I saw this bag in an ad in Bazaar in immediately fell in love.

I adore this bag, but I adore the artist even more. Two artists were commissioned from Prada to do the illustrations for this season's looks. The one who did the illustration on this bag is the eloquent James Jean.

The website has the entire illustration on it for those interested.

this bag really doesn't appeal to me. prada has been making hideous bags lately

Divine! So beautiful, I love it.

I liked the conte de fees (fairy tale) Vuitton did in 2001 with Julie Verhoeven, but yes, the current Vuitton patchwork that Beyonce wore is hideous.

I love the dreamy, fluid, scrolly artwork . Not sure I'd be happy with it on a handbag, but I could see Dries van Noten, for example, doing wonders with it as a billowy skirt or scarf.

Oh my, it's visually stunning! What a treat to end my very long week with. Thank you bag snob!

when i first looked at it, it reminded me of tatoo art... then i remembered that it is on *leather* so in a way it is a tatoo. strange.

btw, nice registered mark ladies, i just noticed that. will we have to start referring to you as the bagsnobs®?

Now THAT'S a seasonal bag worth buying!

kamo- you always bring a fresh perspective :)

And thank you, the registered trademark was long overdue. Our attorney had been reminding us to do it for months and we finally did.

So let this serve as public notice, any use of the word Bag Snob, The Bag Snob, Bag Snobs, and The Bag Snobs in online publishing or traditional media without our prior consent will result in the wrath of our brilliant attorney. Trust me, I would not want to mess with her :)

oh man, this KILLS me! i remember seeing artwork by James Jean about 5 years ago, he was well known in the underground art scene---now he's doing prada? i have mixed feelings about the "selling out" and at the same time, allowing the masses know more about him...

*grr* should have invested in his pieces!!

I would definitely love this as a clutch. Too cute..

Stunning.

Personally, I don't agree that it is 'selling out' to let one's artwork be displayed on clothing and accessories; what better canvas is there, than one that is completely portable?

Also, 'the masses' are people, too, you know!

there is so much talk about this purse and i completely understand it...its beautiful!

me and my girls love fashion

In the full illustration, most of the fairies are wearing the Prada footless socks!

I love this bag! It's been a long time since I saw a bag that left me completely mesmerised...(small white lie, I recently purchased a purple lizard Hermes pochette - that one left me salivating all the way to the till!). I adore fairies and the bag looks simply enchanted!

this is a lovely bag, one that I would love to carry for years, and you can team it with so many looks - the dreamy flower child, the elegant yet quirky executive, the dramatic diva...

I love this bag its truly a heavenly art in action

I actually called all around the country (literally) to all the prada stores and got one!!!! I purchased the medium size which is quite large 15 w by 11 high by 6 wide. it is one of the most gorgeous bags I have ever owned and i am not a huge prada fan. any description of this bag or pics barely do it justice. sumptuous!! the interior is lined with the most elegant burgundy calfskin you have ever seen or touched. I put myself on at least 4 waiting lists at prada ny, la , las vegas etal. the key is to give them your credit card and fill out the paper with the signature confirmation as you are being put on the list and tell them to just send it and bill you. if not , the will call you and if you dont call back in 2 seconds its sold to someone else. the nicest people to deal with were in the ny store!! really a classic !!!!

I litterally look at this bag everyday and I want it soooooo badly!!! I cant wait until its mine :) Perfect, beautiful and deffinately a conversation piece as well!

i wish i could afford one, it's so unique and lovely

Can I leave my hubby and marry this bag? i am totally in love...

I'm leaving for Europe in a few days do you think i could get this bag there? Which Prada branch do you think i could get it at?

I absolutely love this bag! I was on the waiting list in NY and was amazed when they called and said it had been shipped out. Again, the pictures don't do it justice. I have carried it once since the weather has started to break here in Chicago and women literally stopped me on the street and were like Oh My God...That Bag Is Amazing! Good idea about the wearing something simple to set it off. I wore a simple ivory silk dress from the Calvin Klein spring collection and purse did all the talking!

OH! This is so sad! I love this bag. But, you know, if you’re gonna charge that much money, it shouldn’t bleed. Maybe it’s a joke that Miuccia has played on all of us. Maybe it’s part of the art. Then again, it could just be poor craftsmanship. Ghetto.

awww OMG! my mum has this bag, me and her both love it! trust me ,this is a bag to die for, its so soft and gorgerous, and just holding it is a pleasure! We looked everywhere for this handbag, we were told we would never get one in England(only 3/4 in the country), and so we went to Northen Ireland and found it ( only 1 in Ireland!)never felt such excitement in my life! Nothing compares to this handbag, its a work of art, a fashion must have and a girls eye candy!!!! happy handbaging!!! xx

I just got the Prada fairy purse and I love it! The pink rose leather inside is so soft and pretty. I love the original design it is very unique and quite different from all my other Prada bags. To those of you who want it you better run fast because I got the last one in the store today! Lucky me!

I've had mines now for about a month, and I have gotten so many compliments. I only got it because it was different.

I know it's been over a year now since they've come out... But, are these amazing bags/works of art still for sale anywhere? I've never been able to spend this much on anything before but, (being in stage 4 of Lymphoma and just hitting the big 2-8) I really want to throw caution to the wind and finally do something truly special for myself. Having something this beautiful and inspiring to look at every day would definitely be worth the debt. I love them!!

Hi,

I know that some of us are dying to get this bag,but cannot afford it,if dont mind settle for a replica,so many being offered on www.ioffer.com and its reasonably priced.
