To commemorate the opening of Bottega Veneta’s Beverly Hills Maison – only the second of its kind in the world –  the brand has launched a special edition of the Beverly 71/16 bag in crocodile and Cervo. Why Beverly 71/16? Well, that’s because this style, first created in 1971 was resurrected from Bottega’s archives and then reinterpreted for the latest Spring/Summer 2016 collection! 😉

Located on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills and measuring 4,828 square feet, the Maison houses Bottega’s  full range of products for both Men and Women, including bags, SLGs, ready-to-wear, shoes, jewellery, fine jewellery, luggage, eyewear, fragrances and home accessories.

“For the last several decades my eye for this style of architecture has evolved following frequent visits to places such as Santa Barbara, Montecito and Pasadena.   … The restraint and proportion of the minimalist Spanish colonial architecture – the lack of colour, the simple complexity of the arches, the choice of stone – all contributed to the facade design and interiors for this Maison” – Tomas Maier –

Following the opening of the Beverly Hills Maison, Bottega will be opening its third Maison in New York City in 2017.
