And while shoes and coats have proven to be some of the brand’s most in-demand pieces, the hardest item to get your hands on in recent years has to be one of Bottega Veneta’s bags. The brand recently launched its commitment to expert craftsmanship and luxurious materials with an announcement of a new lifetime warranty on its bags. The Certificate of Craft program offers unlimited complimentary refreshes and repairs on their bags, ultimately encouraging less waste. Bottega bags for life you say? Er, yes please.
Celebrities, industry insiders and the public have found themselves falling head over heels for Bottega Veneta’s arm-candy offering, leaving wait lists in their wake. The frenzy first started with The Pouch; a buttery-soft, for the lack of a better word, clutch, with wide-framed jaws that clasp together to create a gathered leather effect. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (above) was one of the first to tote Bottega Veneta’s The Pouch, and in the time since, it’s come to define the fashion zeitgeist.
