Bottega Veneta Summer 26: Louise Trotter's First Chapter

Bottega Veneta's Summer 2026 collection has unveiled the first vision of new Creative Director Louise Trotter. Rather than a loud declaration, the collection opts for the quiet atmosphere of a beginning, demonstrating a balanced perspective that looks to both past and future as the house's signature Intrecciato technique meets urban sensibility. Trotter honors the brand's heritage while proposing a fresh direction, reinterpreting Bottega Veneta's soft functionality through a contemporary lens.

PAP Magazine captured the night of Bottega Veneta unfolding in a pure white space. Five celebrities—including brand ambassador I.N, MEOVV's Sooin, Kim Seonho, and Kayoung—appeared dressed in the essence of the collection. The craftsmanship and essence of luxury revealed within the restrained space clearly outline the new chapter Trotter is drawing for the house.

Louise Trotter's Bottega Veneta calls back to its past while keeping its gaze firmly forward. As the flexible structure of Intrecciato overlaps with urban memory, the house chooses not to stage a beginning but to reveal the atmosphere of one. This is Bottega Veneta's quiet yet resolute declaration opening a new era.
