The company was first founded as 'Fratelli Prada' which translated means ("Prada Brothers"). the year it was founded was in 1913 by the brother Mario Prada. During the reign of the borthers the company never earned International fame. Not until 1978, when Mario's granddaughter Miuccia Prada inherited the company did this occur. As this point Prada was still a leather goods business, but Miuccia wanted to take it into haute couture.
