Collective Spirit: A Tribute to Bottega Veneta’s Rich History and Iconic Figures
by Adriano Batista
The essence of Bottega Veneta lies in the collective spirit that has driven the brand since its inception in 1966. Now, a new project pays homage to this guiding philosophy and the rich history of the legendary fashion house.
This stunning set of books, comprised of two volumes, showcases the awe-inspiring creations of Gaetano Pesce for Bottega Veneta, alongside a collection of never-before-seen photographs capturing the raw emotion and movement of the Summer 23 collection. The third volume is a mesmerizing fanzine dedicated to the beloved Creative Director Matthieu Blazy’s lifelong admiration for Kate Moss.
Drawing on a selection of collages and images from Matthieu’s teenage years, the fanzine provides a fascinating glimpse into his journey of self-discovery, and his unyielding love for the iconic supermodel.
As Matthieu himself recalls, “Kate Moss was my first Google search. She’s the first photo to be printed on the family printer. Whenever I hear a modem, I think of Kate, because I mainly looked for her pictures as a teenager. She became a personal icon.”
This beautiful tribute to Kate and the pages of a binder that defined Matthieu’s coming of age is a mesmerizing invitation into the world of Bottega Veneta, and a celebration of the childlike wonder that drives us all.
