However, it is not clear whether Bottega Veneta’s noble Stanitzel tolerates grease stains: the Italian fashion house’s accessory was made of light calfskin using the intrecciato technique. In any case, it would be a shame, because the good piece costs around 1,100 euros – as much as a small bag from a luxury fashion brand or 220 portions of chips for the price of five euros. The instagrammable object is an invention of stylist Matthieu Blazy, who has been the creative director of Bottega Veneta since the end of 2021. The Belgian may have wanted to leave a fragrant mark on the Italian house with the Pommes-Stanitzel.
