Matthieu Blazy has been in place at Bottega Veneta for the last 6 seasons, taking on the hard responsibility of succeeding to Daniel Lee, who reinvented a whole universe for the brand : from the bottle green bags to ultra design stores.

Matthieu Blazy has diligently created season after season a wardrobe that would make many envious. His vision of the woman is elevated, elegant but also has a true sense of easiness.

This Fall/Winter 24 season, after a dull start of Milan fashion week with brands who played it safe and made us feel like we were still in year 2002,  Bottega Veneta set their show with Le Corbusier x Cassina wooden stools, a lava like floor and Murano giant cactuses. Bottega Veneta manages to include savoir faire in everything they do, from leather that looks like denim, set design and cultural events such as the one curated by Matthieu Blazy in Rio de Janeiro last year.

The audience got treated to incredibly feminine silhouettes that had a huge sense of modernity and looked not only wearable but also comfortable. 

Midi leathered skirts, layerings of oversized shirts, casual styling, the perfect little black dresses and accessories that felt so relevant but also so desirable nowadays. 

It felt on trend but a trend that could last a life time.

In the midst of quiet luxury, no one does it better than Matthieu Blazy - there doesn’t need to be a logo to guess where the orange intrecciato gloves come from yet the craftsmanship is so obvious to the eye - it screams perfectly well executed and luxurious fabrics.

Bonus : the coloroma was exactly what next Fall/Winter needs from brown hues to pastel dresses, a touch of red and the ever so elegant khakis.

The casting was excellent, the girls were just cool. Body inclusivity/size inclusivity was a hard 0, but you can’t have everything.
