Daniel Lee’s fifth collection for the Italian house “celebrates Bottega’s heritage made relevant for today”

Fresh off a landmark year that saw Bottega Veneta rise to become one of the <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/top-notch-bottega-veneta-is-one-of-the-hottest-brands-in-the-world">hottest commodities in the industry</a> (taking home a record four wins at the British Fashion Awards, no less), the Italian house has unveiled its latest collection for the Pre-Fall 2020 season, ripe with looks that are sure to be a fixture in the frow and on the streets in the coming months, if not years. Silhouettes are softer than ever before, and infused with a sporty sensibility, while still retaining the sophistication and sensuality at the heart of the brand&rsquo;s DNA.

&ldquo;Straight-forward. Bold and confident. Subtly elevated. Pre-Fall 2020 celebrates Bottega&rsquo;s heritage made relevant for today,&rdquo; commented creative director Daniel Lee.

Elements that have evolved into house codes under the aegis of Lee make expected appearances in unexpected ways: the signature <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/in-good-shape-bottega-veneta-fall-winter-2019-accessories">intrecciato</a> pattern surfaces on puffer jackets, curb-stomping boots, and furry coats; <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/chain-reaction">chains</a> are supersized and draped across quilted bags and plunging necklines; and mirrored mosaics adorn halter neck tops, dresses, and flared trousers. Exaggerated fringing, knotted details, and ruching add a touch of playfulness, while surprising pops of red, blue, yellow, pink, and white move away from the usual dark tones for a more youthful feel.

Some of Lee&rsquo;s biggest hits so far have been on the accessories front, like the now-iconic <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/10-of-the-hottest-accessories-of-the-moment">Pouch</a> and the Lido sandals, and as such it is perhaps no surprise that the Pre-Fall 2020 collection should serve up a few more major looks. There&rsquo;s an oversized version of the Shoulder Pouch that bucks the tiny bag trend and comes in an intriguing crinkled material not unlike crumpled paper, along with a jumbo-sized furry tote that is at once chic and cuddly. One design that has already gone viral on the internet is an unusual macram&eacute;-style weave applied to open-toed mules, open-backed boots, and a clutch, which bears an uncanny resemblance to uncooked ramen noodles.
