Nylon backpacks, brushed leather Cleo bags, and Re-Edition 2000s studded in crystals: let us count the ways iconichave graced our own closets and those of the style icons we so admire. And yet, the mid-2000s style revival has now brought us back to one of the label’s most memorable shapes of all time: the Galleria bag. Midway through the
, it’s already been spotted on the likes of Katie Holmes and Gabrielle Union, while Elsa Hosk and Karlie Kloss have also snapped it up for their Instagram feeds.First released in 2007, the Galleria is a bag with history. With a geometric shape riffing on the structured ladylike bags of the 1940s, its top-handle silhouette offers a slightly vintage vibe with a modern hint of formality and timelessness.
The same year, Mario Prada developed the Saffiano technique well-loved by the most devout of Prada fans worldwide, which would later become a hallmark of the Galleria. To put it simply, Saffiano takes smooth and sumptuous calf leather and transforms it with a delicious crosshatch patterned finish, so specific to Prada. The technique is created using an intricate hot-pressing process where raw edges are smoothed and hand-painted to match.
So, what makes it the right bag for right now? Well, aside from the sturdy shape that goes with just about everything, it also has the right sort of low-key luxe vibe for summer outfits. Gauzy dresses, straw hats, and even linen button-ups get a little bit of a lift with a structured top-handle bag. Take, for instance, Gabrielle Union, who wore a small beige Galleria replete with geometric orange and blue shapes.

How a Remote Australian Mine Became a Gender-Balanced WorkplaceWhile many industries have struggled to reach — and sustain — gender equality, progress has been particularly slow in mining and other traditionally male-dominated industries. While women comprise only 10% of workers at other large mines globally, South Flank, an iron ore mine in Western Australia operated by BHP, has created a workforce where 40% of the 869 frontline employees are women, and four out of six senior managers are women. The authors, whose research specializes in changing sexist and homophobic behaviors in traditionally male-dominated settings, were initially hired to deliver workshops on the subject at South Flank, but in their six weeks there, studied its workforce via observation and interviews. They identified five key factors that allowed the mine to achieve gender parity and inclusion of women workers: 1) Strong engagement from senior leaders who set strict gender equity targets, 2) strong support from leaders at the head office, 3) major investments in fostering a welcoming and safe mining camp, 4) use of science and data-driven approaches to drive change, and 5) recognition that gender equity is hard to achieve and sustain and requires ongoing work. They also outline potential obstacles to sustaining future progress, such as deeply rooted masculine norms that harm the well-being and retention of women workers and the lack of systems to support parents of all genders who hope to return to mining.
