Matthieu Blazy’s pre-spring 2025 collection for Bottega Veneta brims with playful sophistication, crafting a narrative rooted in nostalgia and youthful imagination.
A standout piece, the oversized Richard Scarry “Biggest World Book Ever,” framed against a jacket in the house’s hallmark Intrecciato leather, epitomizes the season’s creative depth.
Blazy translates the whimsical world-building of childhood into a curated wardrobe that balances opulence with approachability.
The lookbook featuring models Hedi Ben Tekaya, Mohammed Banze, Shun Yoshida, Tommaso Zana, and Yuhi Miyahara, reveals a collection that revels in tactile indulgence and visual intrigue.
Photographers Louise & Maria Thornfeldt capture rich gingham checks that add a rustic charm, while bold injections of color—such as an electric red double-breasted suit softened with a crisp white scarf—make a sartorial statement.

Blazy’s use of textures ranges from printed shearling to smooth leather, showcasing his command over contrasting elements.
Accessories anchor the collection, with pieces like the Roma slipper and the must-have Sawyer bag. Meanwhile, sharp tailoring elevates everyday essentials, as seen in high-waisted wool trousers paired with a leather trench.
These looks speak to the modern man’s wardrobe: functional yet expressive. Altogether, Blazy’s pre-spring vision straddles fantasy and practicality, where youth’s boundless creativity blends with high-fashion mastery.
