Bottega Veneta has outdone itself again with its Nero Soft Alligator Suitcase. The piece is a tribute to luxury, melding exquisite materials with clean and classic design. Despite its soft construction, the suitcase is intended to handle heavy travel. Marked by brass details and a lock-and-key buckle for added safety, the suitcase also includes an internal elastic pocket and a garment bag for further functionality. Without a doubt, this re-creation of the quintessential suitcase will be a must-have for the fall and a delightful addition to any remaining summer travel.

Known for its artisanal leather goods, Bottega Veneta is an Italian fashion house that has truly upheld the art of leatherworking, not only through their fine products but by maintaining high standards and reviving a steadily diminishing craft. Their free school, Scuola della Pelletteria, trains a new generation of designers and insures not only the brand’s continual excellence but the continuance of its signature techniques that strengthen thin, quality leather. Having more recently expanded into furniture, it is no surprise that suitcases such as this one have become a chief influence in their home collection which offers handled bookends and leather-woven baskets.

For those of you interested in a more day-to-day accessory, the Nero Soft Collection also introduces a briefcase of the same exotic leather and strong design. While inspired by the idea “that travel is pleasure,” the collection maintains a professional appearance for businessmen and jetsetters alike.

Available soon, through the Bottega Veneta website and their worldwide boutiques; the leather luggage set are priced at $53,500 for the suitcase and $26,300 for the briefcase.
