Bottega Veneta
A play on innovative fabric treatments from Tomas Maier brought a relaxed feel to his riff on lightweight SB tailoring. There were subtle ethnic influences too in his covered-up casual looks.
The look: Relaxed summer dressing
Silhouette: Neat and narrow
Key items: The 2SB narrow-shouldered suit forms the core of the collection, worked in washed and treated fabrics to create a worn and relaxed feel, layered over mismatched patterned shirts with micro collar detailing. A more casual feel combines pieced leather and denim for simple zipped jackets and narrow jeans or for Maier's take on ethnic summer dressing, with button-to-the-neck shirt jackets with four pockets and zipped detailing. Knits too continue that casual feel, with graphic jacquard patterns mirroring the patterns on shemagh scarves
Colour: Shades of soft blue, tonal pebble greys and warm tobacco browns and cigarillo neutrals are offset with crisp summer white and two shots of vivid contrast in bright cerulean blue and parrot green
Fabric & knit: Basic cotton and linen move into a new dimension with Maier's preoccupation with innovative fabric treatments, as materials are mixed, patched, or cut apart and reformed. There are overprinted seersuckers and shirt checks, pique, leather and jersey, stripes atop stripes, linen-cotton twill printed to look like Irish tweed, elaborately patterned knits, and bleached, printed Japanese denim
Print & pattern: Tweed effects, multicoloured overprinted bleached effects on denim, cross-hatched linear stripes, graphic knitted jacquards, shirting checks
Details & trims: Contrast waistbands, leather trims on shirt jackets, zips
Footwear: Cutout slides, a casual-style Oxford
Accessories: Soft slouchy bags with feature stitching, alligator bags with a worn and weathered feel, tri-colour zipped document-style bags, checked belts
