BOTTEGA VENETA READY-TO-WEAR FALL/WINTER 2022

By Crash redaction

“Bottega Veneta is in essence pragmatic because it is a leather goods company. Because it specializes in bags it is about movement, of going somewhere; there is fundamentally an idea of craft in motion… » states Matthieu Blazy, the creative director of Bottega Veneta. The Fall/Winter 2022 collection presented at Milan Fashion Week is about going somewhere and how the timeless bags and clothing of Bottega Veneta accompany a cast of characters on their journey. From the Italian bombshell in her everyday, photo-real denim with her Kalimero bag slung over her shoulder; to the girls in their lover’s business shirts and their intreccio thigh high boots; then on to men and women in stripped down suiting, revealing in profile a more radical silhouette. Looks formulated for ultra-lightness, fullness, movement and texture, are found throughout for both men and women; from new wool flannels, and color flecked herringbones, printed textural pieces built around the body, to new interpretations of Leavers lace, still made on eighteenth century looms and layered synthetic jersey.
