These ones look like some kind of "Pouch" (which appeared to be absent from the runway this season), some with commercial-grade barrier chains for a handle.

A *very* large Intrecciato Veneta-esque bag. See? There's your classic intrecciato dolls. And we thought he was gonna get rid of it. Pfft!

Maybe this is a new variation of the SLIP TOTE. It was prominenly featured on the runway:

A couple more clutches. One DAISEY Bag in a wood finish and a.... uh.... large chunk of Obsidian? Amber?
Hmmm. Looks like someone is capitalizing on this Himalayan Sea Salt Lamp thing, huh?

Shoes!
*I'm not sure if they didn't get the right size for the models, of it you're supposed to wear them big like that. Anyway...

Thanks S! I know it takes a lot of effort to post all this and even more so if you don’t love what you’re posting.
I thought the dresses were really nice. They had a lovely drape and ease to them and they were sexy but not in a tacky way. I don’t care for the shoes but I get the look against the clean simple lines of the dresses. The bags were what I expected — architectural and modern but also trendy and impractical. The slip clutch tote thing I liked best. I will say that it was rather nice to see bags that will likely be in boutiques instead of runway only/very limited styles.

Thank you @V0N1B2 for the photos. I sort of like the amber chunk / glass ashtray clutch, along with the silver bean clutch.....although they look like they don’t hold much. If it’s true that BV is after millennials, then I’m not on their radar anyway. However, if they ever look for menopausals, I’m available.
Ugh. I know, right?
*please note I am not arguing with you and I agree it's nice to see in advance what is for sure going to be hitting the stores eventually
Technically, every single bag shown on the runway from Fall 2019 (as well as the Pre-Fall 2019 lookbook) is in boutiques or currently on the website. This is in stark contrast to what the SAs at Bottega Veneta first said after the Show last February. There was a lot of "Oh, these bags are just for the runway" type of thing. That proved to be incorrect, as all of them are now showing as available.
I'm going to guess it will be the same with the Resort and Spring 2020 bags.
So, here's my take on the collection for all the people who DGAF about my opinion
To be honest, I was expecting to see something new. Fresh, even. All I see is a rehash of Resort 2020. But on steroids.
This dress, is really just this sweater from Resort 2020 reworked.
This Bag, is just a super sized version of this Resort 2020 bag that we haven't even really seen yet. They share the same Knot in front.
The shoes (mules) weren't really any different from last season. This season they are done in what I would call an ode to the Bombe treatment from 2008? and for Resort 2020 they were done in the giant intrecciato.
Lastly, this jacket has a similar cut as the one from Pre-Fall 2019. Something about it reminds me of what the ladies working the makeup counter wore in the 80s
The styling was boring. Normally I would say that plain models let the clothes speak for themselves, but what the clothes are saying to me, at least, is - schlump.
The menswear didn't look any different that his previous three seasons of menswear. I mean, Resort 2020 had a few good looks, but I dunno, maybe School Shooter Chic or Tragic Black-Sock-Wearing Hipster is de rigeur. I noticed that Daniel didn't come out wearing black leather shorts - just sayin'
I guess if Rihanna can pull off an over-over-sized baggy denim outfit, I guess it's okay for Bottega's men.
James Turlington tho....
Also?
Spring 2020 VS. Fall 2000
You know what they say: everything old in new again
