Bottega Veneta launches poofy pop-up store

An inflatable fun house for bag lovers has appeared outside Ion Orchard, filled with treasures from Bottega Veneta.

The pop-up store by the Italian luxury fashion house arrives in Singapore in an all-new colourway, after debuting in the brand’s signature parakeet green in Chengdu, China.

A singular material was used to create the completely soft pavilion, inspired by Bottega’s use of soft leather – and calls to mind some of its popular bags including the Cassette (from $1,560) and Arco (from $2,920).

The first major regional pop-up by the brand, known for its quiet approach to luxury, will travel to Thailand next.

It is not just for photo-taking either. Until March 27, visitors can shop the brand’s iconic accessories and pieces from the new Summer 2023 collection here.

Aside from best-selling shapes such as the Jodie bag (from $2,370), there are ready-to-wear collections for men and women, and shoes including the Knot ($2,550), a statement heeled sandal balanced on a gold knot element; as well as the genderless Alfie range of woven mules, sandals and slip-ons.

Exclusive to the pop-up store are vanity cases and miniature bags – including the Sardine (from $4,570), featuring Bottega’s signature intrecciato weave and a sinuous brass handle, now in a petite size with a crossbody strap.

Info: The pop-up runs till March 27, 11am to 10pm, at Ion Orchard Outdoor Atrium.
