Thoughts on Bottega Veneta bags?

[Anonymous]

I’m looking at a few used ones in great condition. I like nice things but I’m very anti obvious logos - thoughts?

I have a BV and love it. It’s timeless and not obvnoxious

I have two I bought on RealReal in perfect condition. They’re really nice & well-made. Try & you can always send back

I'm not a huge fan but they don't scream label whore at all. Can look very chic, but maybe in a more casual, undone way.

Beautiful quality. Buttery soft leather.

That said, the intrecciato is fairly well known (esp with the popularity of the dumpling clutch) and not just among purse lovers. It’s no LV monogram, but I wouldn’t assume you’re going to fly completely under the radar. To me, it’s sort of like Goyard - understated but known.

Gorgeous bags but too expensive. I recently got a woven bag from Dragon Diffusion. Love it and it was under $300.

+1, just go in knowing that.

I love them and feel like it's the "anti-label" high end bag. Yes, people who know fashion will recognize the intrecciato, but if you get it in one of the more classic shapes (I love the hobos -- the perfect amount of slouch) it doesn't scream trendy. People who know, know, and everyone else will just notice the quality of the leather. It's a more subtle signature than, say, Chloe. I feel like only Celine has them beat for for just being really high quality, under the radar, bags. And even with Celine, I can spot their trapeze shape a mile away because I know my bags.

With the latter being ugly.

Goyard is unfortunately now like LV and seen all over. It’s also very poor quality. BV is a much different aesthetic

Love them!

PP who brought up Goyard. Yes, BV is a different aesthetic. My point was that the Goyard signature print and BV intrecciato make the brands very identifiable to the naked eye. In that way they are LV (that’s what happens when you put the same print on all your products.)

I think LV sac dejour is pretty subtle too
