On top of designing for Raf Simmons, Blazy has then gone on to design the ‘Artisanal’ line and Women’s RTW show under Maison Margiela and then worked directly beside Phoebe Philo at Celine. In the long slew of professional accolades and achievements, Blazy found his way to Bottega Veneta in 2020 where he was appointed RTW Design Director. In the midst of all of his experience, it is with great excitement that someone of Blazy’s caliber and knowledge takes hold of a fashion house that has become a staple in luxurious and sleek designs.
When asked about Matthieu Blazy’s latest promotion, Bottega’s CEO Leo Rongone declares, “Matthieu Blazy is an extraordinarily talented individual, whom I am proud and excited to entrust with the creative helm of our luxury House. Bottega Veneta has always been equated with signature craftsmanship and distinctive creativity. Matthieu’s appointment will further enhance the modern relevance of our brand and accelerate our growth while preserving the values that are at the core of Bottega Veneta.” It’s thrilling to see someone who has contributed so much to the fashion industry finally continue a legacy and to take charge behind a house as coveted as Bottega.
Blazy is set to premier his first collection in February 2022.
Guests found themselves seated in personalized director chairs in signature Gucci canvas, yet another nod to the Hollywood ethos of it all. This show was a statement for Michele, who, since COVID, has taken a considerable step back from the traditional four-city fashion calendar. Instead of churning out products for fall and spring, summer and winter, Michele has begun to opt for larger, more all-encompassing collections. Larger scale affairs like his “Guccifest,” the mini film festival, have replaced traditional fashion shows for him. The Gucci Love Parade is no different.
His clothes have always lived on the fine line between classic and costume, a comfortable realm for Michele and now an iconic signature for the brand itself. Striving for a more is more maximalist attitude, he is constantly striving to reexamine classic silhouettes, fabrics, and accessories, bringing classic old Hollywood glamour into the 21st century.
Some may ask, why Hollywood Boulevard, Michele asked, why not? In an era where any slight movement in life can become sensationalized thanks to social media, Michele felt it only fitting that his collection is debuted on one of the most iconic boulevards in the world. Gucci is for the person who gets dressed up to go pump gas. Gucci is for those not afraid to pair gym shorts with a killer pair of boots and an opulent fur. Gucci is for those who make every day, every moment, and every city street their stage.
