In 2019, three leading international architects were invited to collaborate with Prada to create women’s accessories crafted from the brand’s staple nylon fabric. Japanese architect Kayuzo Sejima developed a modular handbag with pouches and detachable charms and pockets. Her design invites playful and active participation from the carrier who can decide how to wear the bag by assembling it in different formats.
