What You Need to Know from the Bottega Veneta Runway Show

Ever since Daniel Lee took the helm as creative director at Bottega Veneta in 2018, the Italian heritage brand has been one of the most talked-about labels at fashion month and one of the most-worn designers on the street style scene. The Phoebe Philo alum won fashion insiders over with his own take on modern minimalism with cult accessories like the pouch bag and quilted heels that are permanently in demand and on the sell-out list.

As the collections continue, Lee continues to evolve Bottega Veneta’s new standbys. For F/W 20, new iterations of the classic woven intercciato bag, chunky boots taking inspiration from Chelsea and Western styles, chain-trimmed dresses (this time in a heavy woven knit), and the minimal designs that grew him such a devoted fanbase. There are also more maximalist pieces: sweeping shearling coats finished with heavy fringe, bold pops of fuchsia and kiwi to offset sharply tailored outerwear, crystal-embellished jeans.

Ahead, discover more from the F/W 20 Bottega Veneta collection, including the 7 major trends that will be eveywhere next season.
