Cassette or Horsebit?

The padded Cassette is two layers of soft leather in Bottega Veneta's oversized intrecciato weave; its strap tucks inside so it becomes a clutch. The flat Cassette is lighter and slimmer. The Gucci Horsebit 1955 revives a saddle shape from the house archive, in monogrammed canvas or black textured leather, made in Italy. Read our Bottega Veneta guide or our Gucci guide.

Shoulder Bags: your questions answered

Can the Bottega Veneta Cassette be worn as a clutch?
