Bottega Veneta

SPRING 2000 READY-TO-WEAR

By Laura Moltedo & Edward Buchanan

Bottega Veneta showed a line of simple, easygoing separates, including shimmery coral tops, ecru leather pantsuits and beaded cardigans. But in keeping with the luxury leather house s roots, the true stars of the show were their signature handbags, which came down the runway with nearly every outfit. There were oversized carry-alls, simple clutches, and large, square hard cases in sophisticated taupe as well as spring s essential colors: lime green and pink.
