An elegant choice for weddings, cocktail evenings or refined dinners, the Prada Cleo in light grey brushed leather brings understated shine with silver‑tone hardware. Its streamlined shape and adjustable shoulder strap sit comfortably from day to night—equally at home with pastel tailoring or a little black dress.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What typically fits inside the Cleo Shoulder Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 30 × 17 × 6 cm, it comfortably holds a large smartphone, a small to medium wallet or cardholder, keys, compact cosmetics and a slim sunglasses case. Because the Cleo has a curved silhouette and magnetic closure, flatter items pack best. Capacity varies by how you organise your things—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Can this Cleo be worn crossbody as well as on the shoulder? A: The bag features a single adjustable shoulder strap for a snug shoulder carry. This item also includes a detachable shoulder strap listed in the product information, which many clients use to lengthen the drop. Whether it works as a crossbody depends on your height and the strap setting—check the strap measurement listed here to ensure your preferred carry.
Q: What is Prada’s brushed leather and how does it wear? A: Prada’s brushed (spazzolato) leather is a polished calf leather with a sleek, semi‑gloss finish that gives the Cleo its refined look. Like most smooth leathers, light hairline marks can occur with wear, but regular, mindful use keeps it looking elegant over time.
Q: Does the magnetic snap affect credit cards or electronics? A: Modern chip‑enabled cards are generally unaffected by handbag magnets, while older magnetic‑stripe‑only cards can be susceptible. As a precaution, keep cards inside a wallet and position them away from the closure. Phones and wireless earbuds are typically safe when used normally inside the bag.
Q: How should I care for and clean the brushed leather? A: Wipe the exterior gently with a clean, soft, dry cloth after use. Avoid water, oils, solvents and prolonged exposure to direct heat or sunlight. If the leather picks up faint surface marks, a light buff with a soft microfiber cloth can help minimise their appearance. For deeper care, consult a professional leather specialist.
Q: Is the Cleo water‑resistant? A: No—brushed leather is not waterproof. If caught in light rain, blot gently with a soft dry cloth and allow it to air dry away from direct heat. Avoid overfilling the bag so the magnetic closure stays aligned.
Q: What are the interior details of this piece? A: This bag is lined in black Prada jacquard fabric and includes an interior patch pocket. It closes with a magnetic snap and features silver‑tone hardware, as shown in our photos and description.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. For this piece, that is a dust bag and a detachable shoulder strap. If an item isn’t listed there, it is not included—feel free to contact us for confirmation.
Q: Where is this bag made? A: This specific item is labelled Italy, consistent with Prada’s production for the Cleo line. Country of origin is shown in our photos and noted on this page.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag? A: Every item is vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, brand markings and manufacturing codes. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional photos or details on request.
