Bottega Veneta

The previous creative director, Daniel Lee, suddenly left,

Many people are curious about how the BV, which is in the ascending period, will change.

Bottega Veneta's Fall/Winter 2022 collection gives the answer.

The new design director Matthieu Blazy made his debut by abandoning many of daniel Lee's BV images, in favor of emphasizing the leather elements and weaving details that BV itself excels at. In an interview before the show, Matthieu Blazy said directly that he would focus on BV's extravagant craftsmanship and craftsmanship.

The 37-year-old is from Belgium and has a fairly rich resume.

During his student years, he interned at Balenciaga under Nicolas Ghesquiere, and after graduation worked for Raf Simons and was his proud protégé.

No wonder we saw Raf in the front row of the runway.

In 2013, he led the design of the Maison Martin Margiela Artisanal Couture collection and later joined the team of Céline by Phoebe Philo, where he met Daniel Lee.

We can clearly see his designs this season with a very clear minimalist style, but also outstanding silhouettes, and a hint of bold presentation. Under the influence of these experiences, what kind of Bottega Veneta will Blazy bring to everyone? He gave the answer with 69 sets of looks in one go.

Minimalist, pure leather

"Bottega Veneta is pragmatic in nature. It's a leather goods company that specializes in handbags, so its design is often about travel. Fundamentally, it's a design in motion, and its permanence lies in the fact that 'fashion is more than fashion'. Matthieu Blazy answered his BV.

So he returned BV to purity – embellishing the most mundane daywear with woven leather, realizing the present on the basis of the past and evoking the future.

Under the silhouette, quiet power

Umberto Bocioni's 1913 sculpture was the inspiration for Matthieu Blazy's business wear. The work creates a moving human form, with no head and no hands, but the continuity presents a complete form of sensual aesthetic.

Costumes are stories about characters, explored by both the maker and the wearer, and a quiet power is derived from the exchange — silhouettes that flow between the sexes, that appear repeatedly and constantly confirm that they are "perfect enough".

The sleek, structured silhouette blends with leather, which is further sublimated through the traditional craftsmanship of Italian craftsmen.

Craftsmanship, flamboyant charm

Many people feel Blazy's passion in making Martin Margiela Artisanal couture during this season, and the stitched embroidered skirt is the best answer.

This passion is also hidden between cashmere and leather. The leather silhouette created by the master craftsmanship is incredible, and the small wool sweater with a strong sense of color collision is a very rhythmic dynamic.
