Prada’s latest bag release went from unknown to everywhere overnight. It’s called a root bag, and I saw it for the first time Alexa Chung’s Instagram feed<\/a>Then on to WNBA point guard and Prada ambassador Caitlin Clark<\/a> a few hours later. spanish content creator blanca mir<\/a> Posted about it, as did the French writer Monica de la Villardi\u00e8re<\/a>italian actress Benedetta Porcaroli<\/a>and taiwanese models kiwi lee han<\/a>. Recently, I saw this Camille Charri\u00e8re’s Instagram Stories<\/a>-The French influencer has become the latest in a series of stylish people to abandon their small, understated handbags for the root, a practical-first tote with pockets and a cool, utilitarian edge that somehow matches perfectly with every aesthetic.<\/p>\n Spring\/Summer 2026 styles come in a variety of shapes, sizes and materials, with medium and large classic totes in both leather and canvas proving to be the most popular among the aforementioned style stars. On the smaller side, there’s a cylindrical top-handle option that comes in black or white soft but sturdy leather. There is also a bucket version in black or natural canvas. “The Prada Roots bag emerges from a dialogue of contrasts, reinterpreting traditional codes with freedom and transforming function into stylistic expression and visual identity,” the brand wrote about the style on its website.

The collection was all about adaptability, from apparel to handbags, just like Roots. \u201cThe pieces have inherent flexibility,\u201d the press release says. “Each of these creations constantly, insistently morphs in response to the present.” This bag brings that impact to life, working with the wearer to create everything that’s essential to them and their unique, ever-changing life.<\/p>\n![\"Green](\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/wDpGgWRSVW5bqckM4geuzj-1440-80.jpg.webp)
