Styling
I love a bit of Bottega and I saw these totes in New York one Christmas and knew I had to shoot them. The logo free simplicity, the texture (the black has 1,400 resin spheres) and that Nappa leather just get me every time. Matthew Donaldson gave us a pop of acid yellow and we were away. Classic design doesn’t need a lot to look good.
