BOTTEGA VENETA SS24

Through the direction of Matthieu Blazy, Bottega Veneta has become one of the most consistently exhilarating luxury brands. Its Spring Summer 2024 collection proved that exact point, rooting itself in the book “On the Road” by Jack Kerouac. The inspiration was clear. Blazy intertwined classic house codes with aesthetics from all over the world, keeping enough distance to avoid cultural appropriation accusations while creating a diversified yet cohesive collection.

 From fringed leather dresses to the extremely shareable pom pom dresses, the collection felt more adventurous than usual. But its unusual boldness was balanced by smarter looks, like the drool-inducing office wear accessorized with oversized bags.

 The leather pieces were, as always, a standout. Blazy continues his exploration of leather as a covert fabric. This season, this idea is expanded to oversized leather sweaters and coats woven to emulate tweed.
