OMG! Time flew by! I can't believe it's already resort season. Anyways, I'm loving the last look on Hanne. So casual with the silhouette of the top yet very sophisticated, which is so Bottega.
 
Oooh! So catty! It reminds me a lot of his Hitchcock inspired collection a few seasons ago. I love the digital floral prints in the last look.
 
that first look is so exquisite! I usually don't like one color ensembles but that fist look is so beautiful...and the color combination of that last look reminds me a bit of Proenza

It's very cleaned up, not as raw as some of his pasts seasons....But the colors don't really excite me, just have to wait for more pictures.
 
i usually hate yellow but the paste couple of seasons i have made me enjoy the all yellow outfits

"I always start with color first," said Tomas Maier, explaining his design process. "Color, then material, then shape." That attention to palette came through in his engaging new cruise collection for Bottega Veneta, which kicked off Resort season here in New York today. Inspired by the frescoes of Tiepolo and Veronese, the designer worked with shades of yellow, peach, and mint green, made all the more intense by the way he showed them top to toe in monochrome looks. The soles of a pair of bow-front pumps, for example, were the same bold shade of peach as their leather uppers, which in turn matched the cashmere double-breasted peacoat and wide-legged trousers.

As for materials, Maier looked toward the past and the future. On the one hand, a slim day clutch was made from a type of silk leather that the Italian house used in the seventies; on the other, the label's signature intrecciato bags were woven from a Japanese paper and metal and its large cabat bag from organic black rubber with aluminum embellishments. "If you don't want a leather bag, I don't understand why you want a fake leather bag," he said, and so he sought more original alternatives for the house's usual luscious skins.

Maier gets off on the intersection of the artisanal and the high tech, and he was in full control of the mix here. Clingy jersey gowns were fused with tiny beads rather than embroidered, and larger beads were knit directly into the seams of a pair of stretchy black dresses. There were innovations in terms of shape, too. Maier said he was thinking a lot about the weekend issue—as in, what does the BV woman want to wear on her days off? What he came up with was a pair of true-blue color-blocked tracksuits.

Holy cow this is really really GOOD! Everything's working, the color palette, the silhouette, EVERYTHING :heart:
 
The pieces with the illusion frills are soooo fantastic. And same with the last few black dresses, very sleek.
 
I love it now, a beautiful relaxed silhouette and the prints and colors are so dreamy...
 
I love the collection, especially the color palette :heart:, but I don't like the first and the second look :sick:
 
other than the first two tracksuits paired with high heels ( :sick: ) i really like this. especially the printed pieces
