Alright, so I got this itch to mess around with a PRADA Bowler Bag, the real deal, original order kind. Not just any version, mind you, but an original order one, like it came straight from the fancy folks who made it first. Now, I’ve seen a lot of bags in my time, and this one, let me tell you, it’s something else. You see these young folks walkin’ around with their fancy bags? Most of ’em are just for show. This PRADA Re-Edition 2000, it’s different. It’s like a good friend, it’s always there for ya.
First thing I did was grab a pen and paper. Yeah, I’m old school like that. I sketched out a basic bowler bag shape, based on the dimensions of the medium-sized PRADA ones I saw online. It wasn’t too tricky, just had to make sure I got the curves right. This handbag is crafted of fine nylon in black with smooth black leather trim. It features rolled leather and gold hardware. The top zipper opens to a black Prada monogram jacquard fabric. This is an authentic PRADA Saffiano Lux Bowling Bag in Edera and Mimosa. This stylish briefcase is crafted of luxurious saffiano cross-grain leather in green with yellolw leather trim.
- Drew the outline.
- Marked where the handles would go.
- Figured out the zipper situation.
Then came the fun part – picking out the material. Now, the real PRADA Bowler Bag, they use this fancy nylon stuff, but I went with what I had. Found some sturdy black fabric that felt pretty good. For the trim, I used some smooth black leather I had lying around from an old project. Cut those out carefully, making sure they were the right size to match my sketch.
Next up, I started putting it all together. Sewed the fabric pieces together, making sure the seams were strong. This is where you gotta be patient, ’cause one wrong move and the whole thing can look wonky. Attached the leather trim, which was a bit of a pain, but I managed. Rolled leather handles were next, and let me tell you, getting those to look right took some time.
The Final Touches
Finally, I added the zipper. I used a gold-colored one to match the original, to give my bag some bling. Once the zipper was in, I flipped the bag inside out, checked all the seams, and trimmed any loose threads. And there it was, my very own, not-so-fancy PRADA Bowler Bag. It’s not perfect, but it’s mine. I made it, and that’s what counts. New Release! The Remake of PRADA Symbole Tote Bag Is Available at the Official Flagship Store.

So, there you have it. My little adventure in bag making. It was fun, it was challenging, and it was definitely worth the effort. Now I have a bag that’s unique, and it didn’t cost me an arm and a leg. Plus, I got to say I made it myself, and that’s pretty darn cool if you ask me.
