Since his appointment at Bottega Veneta, Matthieu Blazy has taken us on a journey around the world, exploring the heritage and craftsmanship at the heart of the House throughout the process.
The Winter 2024 collection is a culmination of sorts, introducing House classics—new and old—in smooth leather. The smooth leather series is just a small part of the latest collection, but it influenced Blazy in a big way.
These pieces are rooted in heritage, exploring the brand’s DNA before the introduction of Intrecciato leather. While the bags appear stripped down at first glance, it’s actually the simplicity that makes each bag stand out.
The eye is drawn to the shapes we all know and love, like the Cabat, Andiamo, and Hop. The pared-back designs allow the House’s attention to quality and craft to shine through.
NEW IN
Alongside silky iterations of the Andiamo, Cabat, and Hop, Winter 2024 sees the introduction of the Liberta bag. The Liberta bag combines the sleek shape of a pouch with the functionality of a crossbody. Offering chic sophistication, it feels like an instant classic—a welcome change from the trend-driven pieces of our time.
The new shape arrives in smooth leather alongside a fun Python iteration. The rest of the campaign showcases new versions of other BV classics like an of-the-moment Andiamo in red suede and a metallic silver Knot Clutch alongside (mostly ) wearable ready-to-wear.
Like the season’s bags, clothing is more pragmatic and pared down while offering nods to the Bottega we’ve grown to know and love under Blazy’s watchful eye. Bags will launch later this week, with pricing for the smooth leather series ranging from $4,200 for the Liberta to $8,000 for the Andiamo.
