Fashion & Press Shows
For nearly a decade Il Bottaccio has been hosting several fashion shows such as De Beers and La Perla, Gucci, Katherine Hamnett, Miki Fukai, and co-producing shows in the London Fashion Week with designers such as: Charles Anastase, Arutyunov Sergienko and Hass Idriss.
The white walls of the Grand Gallery provide a clean photographic background with high ceilings that allow professional lighting installations. The capacity for fashion shows is 300 seated guests. The main room has a recess at the far end, which is ideal as a raised area to hold press and photographers. There is a private entrance at Number 8 which can be reserved for use of the media.
The Bottaccio Fashion department has recently joined the ‘Fashion Business Club’, members of whom include home-grown and internationals, well-known and aspiring designers, art directors, journalists, photographers, stylists, buyers, brand managers, make-up artists, graphic designers, copywriters, retailers, creative directors, PRs and more.
