Matthieu Blazy is refining his unique vision for Bottega Veneta, building on the foundation set in his inaugural collection. The Blazy’s modern lens provides a contemporary feel to the traditional Italian craft, making each collection inherently Bottega but defined by Blazy’s modern perspective. His debut bag, the Kalimero, set the precedent that has been expected from Blazy since his 2-year debut.
Intrecciato, Bottega Veneta’s iconic House code, has been redefined with the unique foulard technique, creating a completely new feel. Incorporating the same woven leather but with a pinched effect on calfskin leather, the technique explores artisanal craft in an exciting way, maintaining the brand’s integral DNA. The Kalimero’s innovative approach repeats in the new Cha-Cha bag, a fun shoulder bag silhouette.
The Cha-Cha’s simple shape is complemented by the intricate foulard intreccio leather, delivering a slight sheen in the black version and adding chic appeal to its basic style. Whether worn delicately over the shoulder or clutched in the crook of the arm, the Cha-Cha’s allure is instantly apparent and versatile, suitable for day or night wear.
In terms of quality and construction, the Cha-Cha meets Bottega Veneta’s exceptional standards, with an ornate plisse weave of calfskin leather and a completely unlined interior. The bag, which retails for $3,400, is functional, offering enough room for essentials like a wallet, phone, and small sunglass case. It launches today alongside other new pieces from the Spring/Summer 2024 collection. Discover the full range now via Bottega Veneta.
