Bottega Veneta Fall 2026 Finds Modern Luxury in Venice’s Living Heritage

1 May 2026

By The Fashion Editorial Team

Under the creative direction of Louise Trotter, Bottega Veneta presents the Fall 2026 campaign photographed by Chris Rhodes in Venice. With particular attention to the detailed interiors that adorn the serenity of the Floating City, the Fall/Winter 2026 collection exists between public and private spaces as a contemporary expression of heritage. As vintage wallpaper and terrazzo flooring inform time and place, models Malick Bodian, Leon Dame, Sihana Shalaj, Karmay Ngai, and Aline Van Velzen lend the campaign its modern attitude.

The botteghe of the Renaissance were not only workshops but collaborative spaces managed by guilds, categorized by trade, and interlinked through collective ventures associated with figures such as Verrocchio, Ghiberti, Leonardo da Vinci, Botticelli, and countless others. Flourishing in Florence, this rich foundational heritage is where the spirit of Bottega Veneta resides. Grounding the campaign in the Italian House’s legacy of artisanship through its signature Intrecciato, Trotter presents the Madison shoulder bag, named after the first Bottega Veneta store in New York. In a further gesture of archival sensibility, the Barbara tote’s signature silhouette is offered in new-season hues and finishes for a touch of modern elegance.

From daytime to evening, within time‑honored spaces shaped by the enduring present, Fall/Winter 2026 articulates a desirable and sensual approach to luxury that has long defined the house.
