Fashion Week Handbags: Bottega Veneta Spring 2012

Images via Vogue.com

Bottega Veneta never disappoints. I realize that’s something of a strong statement, but I honestly can’t remember a time when I’ve looked through the handbag images from a Bottega show and thought, “Eh, these are ok.” The bags are always utterly luxurious and usually quite functional on top of it. Tomas Maier knows where his brand’s strengths lie, and as a result, the bag lovers in his customer base always get something utterly lustworthy for their patronage.

Despite a design or two that doesn’t quite pass muster (riveting just make ostrich skin look strangely mottled on a few of these bags), Bottega Veneta Spring 2012 stands out as a very strong handbag collection in a season that’s seen a few stinkers from brands that are usually reliable. Ladies, Bottega is still the Bottega you all know and love.

WOW…!!!
Love number 27!!

I love no. 6 and no. 8.

The two bags are astonishing, they’re very expensive to look at. What really attracts me is the material use in those bags, it just like a crocodile or alligator skin, or something…

Above all, I think when I get rich, I will buy those bags!!!

BV number 24, the matching zip wallet, and lanyard are now brightening my SS2012. Violet is BV’s best purple ever. I had the large cabat on hold at my boutique, but when I saw the lambskin satchel, I could not resist.
