The Best Bags, Boots and Other Accessories at Bottega Veneta’s Fall Winter 2023 Show

The luxury brand’s Milan Fashion Week runway show was a sartorial cornucopia of silhouettes, shapes and materials — especially in Bottega’s footwear and accessories. The brand has long excelled in the categories as a leather purveyor and is known for its artisan techniques, such as its intrecciato leather weaving.

On the runway, there were wedge heels, done in mules and tall boots in mint green, gold and black patent, while a silver pump with a shaped heel and high vamp was decked out with a red rubber sole that curved up the side for a wavy feel. Clear resin bubble mules with specks of gold and a heavy club foot shape formed the eccentric end of the offering while over-the-knee intrecciatos and classic leather boots played it safe but luxe. A cream braided leather sandal with gold accents and a cherry toe was refreshing, and a men’s woven leather Western boot was shaped just so that the average guy might just give it a go.
