Bottega Veneta F/W 2011

Art emphasized flaws displayed at Bottega Veneta. Italian designer Tomas Maier created a collection that had an artful touch of nonchalant implied flaws aimed at the customer with a busy lifestyle. Every piece had a technical treatment that was applied giving it a lived in look while maintaining a luxurious appeal. Leather jackets and pants were crumpled and stretched giving it a rugged masculine touch. Dark wool suits had a over-print treatment giving the illusion of a three dimensional look with misplaced stitching. The fabrics in various pieces were textured and distressed making it entirely abstract. The color palette started out with monochromatic dark wool pieces and shifted into bright technicolor of orange tangerine, bright blue, lemon yellow and sapphire. For the bold color choice Maier was influenced by the 1960's Michelangelo Antonioni classic film, “Red Desert.” The Bottega Veneta look was masculine with a carefree spirit.

The event was held at the Bottega Veneta headquarters at Via Privata Ercole Marelli in South Milan. Argentinian model Nicolas Ripoll opened the show in a dark gray wool suit with an over-print treatment and a strictly cut jacket. The matching pants had a relaxed feeling that was unpressed and tucked inside boots. There was a great range of variety in the selection of pants that came in distressed leather, wool and also came in various colors. Every piece had a artful quirky touch and remained chic at the same time.

Admired pieces in the collection was the distressed leather jackets and pants that gave a nice rugged look. The bold colored coats that were available in bright blue and orange tangerine were incredibly appealing.

Tomas Maier created a artful collection that was artistic and creative with implied flaws that would work perfect for the customer with a busy lifestyle. There was immense creativity that he displayed injecting masculinity and art into a successful fall collection. The Bottega Veneta man has a relaxed attitude while remaining incredibly chic. -Brent Billiman reporting from Milan, Italy.
