Tar, rust, plaster and Opal were just some of the colors on the View Bottega Veneta this season, even the most disciplined pilot of any major Italian brand of luxury.
In the fall of 2011, BV's creative director Tomas Maier took many risks, and when they worked it made for some truly memorable and fresh takes on modern dressing.
Series of ergonomic, plaster or black coats and jackets made of nylon nipped on the neck was panache and credibility display at Bottega Veneta. In the cold weekend in Milan, they look perfect to wear right out the door of the show delivered on Saturday, February 26, in a strict south headquarters of the Milan brand.
Meyer also really hit his pitch for the evening, the best collection of cocktail dresses have seen so far this fall season. Made of lace over layers of printed silk, and worn with a large array set of silver earrings and brooches eyes, they were the perfect combination of chic style and fabulous balance. You could say the models sporting everything so ragged bouffant hairstyle, loved marching in these views - clothes that make them as ladylike and alluring.
However, it was a lot of trial and error data collection, the less attractive the opening series of cumbersome, big button wool boucle seems that not all that flattering, even on the thin line model.
Meyer tried too hard in its finale with the conceptual corset and mini-crinoline evening gowns, where the concept of art clobbered clothes.
However, Bottega Veneta really delivered the goods when he came to another large number of bags, from sports betting in the medium was washed ostrich satchels in velvet washed out.
