Prada Brand Among 5 Haute Designers Observing Ramadan

Prada brand, Armani/ Dolci, Vincci, and Tommy Hilfinger have all unveiled exclusive Ramadan collections, recognizing that Ramadan is the biggest shopping season for Muslims, in hopes that some of the world’s biggest luxury brands will begin to capitalize on the holiday. Jimmy Choo recently had a Ramadan greeting just for Muslims.

Those looking for a renewed Ramadan collection from DKNY this year may be disappointed, however, as designer Donna Karan stepped down just days ago and the fashion house suspended operations.

Every fashionista just has to have the latest items from Prada brand in her closet, and the luxury brand’s special Ramadan line is no different. Prada had fun with crocodile print exclusively for this year’s Holy Month. Among the offerings are a daring bright green bag and a special exclusive made-to-order running shoe.

Prada jazzed up the ordinary running shoe by adding crystals and luxurious crocodile leather detailing. Buyers can choose from shoes made entirely of real crocodile skin or a pair made of a mix of materials. Both are embroidered with stunning crystals, and the shoes come in a wide array of colors. They could also be personalized with initials and come in exclusive packaging with a satin bag. The Dubai Mall took orders for Prada’s exclusive Ramadan shoes earlier this year.
