A wraparound staircase is also in walnut wood and leads to a skylit overlook filled with plants and a VIC room with a private dressing room.

Bottega Veneta is in a transitional phase as Louise Trotter will take on the role of creative director of the brand, joining from Carven at the end of January. She succeeds Matthieu Blazy, who will join Chanel in the first half of the year.

The Chicago store is modeled after the striking blueprint conceived by Blazy, first unveiled in Paris on 12 Avenue Montaigne in September 2023, followed by Aspen in December that year, and then Milan in January 2024, located in luxury shopping arcade Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II.
