About

Italian luxury goods and fashion brand Bottega Veneta has been a prominent fashion brand since its inception in 1966. Supporting its iconic fashion reputation throughout Italy and its international expansion is its Italian legal team of seven lawyers and one paralegal. The structure of the legal team is divided into areas of competence, with each lawyer responsible for an area of the business. Led by general counsel Giacomo Leo, its core lawyers include senior legal counsel, Lorella Cipriani, who is responsible for all communications, fashion shows, PR and events, IP manager Carlotta Corazza and senior legal counsel, Dorella Concadoro, who is responsible for all industrial and supply agreements. The legal team has notably assisted in the real estate acquisition of the company’s office buildings, worth €30m. Internationally they have assisted in a Kuwait buyback transaction completed in May 2019 and a Thailand buyback transaction completed at the beginning of 2018.
