For the first time since Tomas Maier has been Creative Director, the SS17 show will be presented outside of its own venue. However, this is not the only first for Bottega Veneta – they are also combining the men and women’s show for the first time.

Staged in the classroom hallways, lined with classical sculptures and artworks, it marks Bottega Veneta’s commitment in supporting students through scholarships, via the Accademia di Brera educational program, which aim to encourage creativity in future generations.
