Prada is releasing the sartorial version of a greatest hits album: In celebration of the Met's Impossible Conversations exhibit, the brand is re-issuing a collection of It bags from 1991 to 2005.

The limited-edition collection will be available exclusively in New York at Prada boutiques and will relive some of the brand's handbag highlights--from 1991's super popular silk satin bag to 2005's leather frame bag with embossed Prada logo--and obviously there's much to covet.

So, if you want to own a piece of Prada history (not to mention a super cool purse) and you've got a grand or two to spare, now is your time.

Click through to see a peek at the collection, with price points.

The Prada Effect: Why We're Seeing the 50s Everywhere

The upcoming Met exhibit entitled Impossible Conversations involves a sort of rally back and forth between the creations of former visionary Elsa Schiaparelli and current trendsetter Miuccia Prada. The pairing originally raised a few eyebrows. There are some glaring differences between these two Italian women - time being the most obvious one. Schiaparelli closed up shop in 1954, and though innovative and highly influential, she does not have much as much of a direct conversation with the industry or women today as she once did. Meanwhile, Prada is very much alive and thriving. The brand has tremendous cultural recognition--and is in conversation, so to speak, with the industry all the time. Prada's influence is impossible to ignore. So when Miuccia wanted 50s glam and tapped fellow tastemaker and frequent collaborator Steven Meisel to plunk models in a gas station for the spring campaign, we should have realized the ripple effect this would have on fashion imagery.
