Bottega Veneta Fall 2010 Men’s
In the mood for a little nostalgia? Well, it’s the 50s all over again. For Fall 2010, Tomas Maier takes you back to the late 1950s.
If you were to cut the latest Bottega Veneta collection in half and remain fixated only on the show’s first 16 looks, chances are, the hair won’t make any sense to you. First sending out a series of weather repelling looks in shades of deep plum, black, and green – never in a million years would you have though the 50s were anywhere in sight, until pants became cuffed and socks seen. Starting out in more casual denim looks, then graduating into suits and more formal looks, after Garrett Neff took to the runway, no pant or jean was safe from a little cropping or cuffing (sometimes both). Now making idea of ankle baring pants, a very Veneta signature.
But as the hair and 50s-ness of it all took center stage, something else also broke down Bottega boundaries. You know, it’s not every day you see woolen sweatpants on a Bottega Veneta runway.
