Inspired by the look and feel of its atelier in the Italian town of Montebello Vicentino, Bottega Veneta will set up a special nook in its Dubai Mall flagship until November 17. The store is Bottega’s largest boutique in the Middle East, spanning 5,845 square feet over three floors.
This new Customization Atelier exhibit displays more than 100 pieces that celebrate Bottega Veneta’s exotic leather goods, which are coveted by some of the world’s most discerning shoppers. Visitors can explore Bottega’s luggage, small leather goods and women’s handbags; learn more about venerable house’s crafting expertise; as well as opt for its bespoke services.
The Atelier offers the possibility to create an individualised bag by choosing from an array of exotic skins and iconic styles. Items can be further personalised with internal silver plaques or embossed initials. Bottega Veneta’s Customization Atelier is available in Milan, London, Paris, New York, Hong Kong, Beijing, Tokyo and Dubai.
Check out some of the bags on show in the gallery above.
