Bottega Veneta DOWN

Bottega Veneta was founded in Vicenza in 1966 as a modest leatherware emporium with a reputation for first-class craftsmanship. Having grown into one of the world’s most sought-after luxury labels, the brand embraces a global outlook while staying true to its humble Italian heritage. The house’s signature intrecciato weave supplies structural longevity and an immediately recognizable aesthetic to a range of shoes and accessories, including iconic bags like The Knot and The Cabat. Designer Matthieu Blazy joined Bottega Veneta as creative director in 2021 after building an impressive résumé, including fruitful endeavors at Raf Simons, Calvin Klein, and Celine. As much a feeling as it is an aesthetic, Bottega Veneta’s long-standing legacy of minimalist sophistication pays homage to tradition while inspiring authentic self-expression.
