Milan, Italy – Luxury fashion house Bottega Veneta has announced that Louise Trotter will take the reins as its new creative director, following the departure of Matthieu Blazy.
Trotter, who previously served as creative director at the French brand Carven since February 2023, will officially join Bottega Veneta at the end of January 2025. Known for her ability to draw inspiration from everyday life and her meticulous craftsmanship, Trotter’s appointment marks an exciting new chapter for the iconic Italian brand.

Kering, the parent company of Bottega Veneta, extended its gratitude to Blazy for his transformative work during his tenure.
