A new Italian specialty food store and market is coming to a unique building in Leesburg. It will be called Caffe Bottega Italiana and it’s opening in the little white house at 8 Fort Evans Road NE.

That’s the location that was home to All Things New Again for 24 years. The former furniture and home decor store opened in the little white house in 1998 and closed last year.

At only 30, he was said to be the man behind the renaissance of Margiela couture, after the brand’s founding designer left the house. A few years later, he was rumored to be the secret sauce in Phoebe Philo’s Céline collections. Then he was spotted at Calvin Klein, helping reinvent it under Raf Simons. His name kept coming up in reference to top designer jobs, but he never took a bow at the end of the runway.

Along with all the supremely luxurious yet understated luxuries that walked the Bottega Veneta’s spring/summer 2023 show was a new bag. It was a somewhat structured but not boxy (its corners are rounded) calf leather intrecciato accessory that featured brass hardware sculpted into a bow-like knot. The effect is a not-your-grandmother’s ladylike handbag and it’s been dubbed the Andiamo. Italian for “let’s go,” Bottega is here to tell us that the Andiamo is for the wearer who is going places. Currently, the bag comes in three sizes and various earth tones of inky green, chalk white, and full-bodied reds.

By the autumn of 2022, the bag wound up around the arms of Kendall Jenner and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley; it doubles up as a jewel, according to the brand. And lest you forget, the fish is, after all, quite Italian—there’s no chicer summer island destination than Sardinia. In June 2018, Daniel Lee took over the creative directorship of Bottega Veneta and turned the label into one that churned out It bag after It bag—all without the use of a single logo. Early in his tenure, Lee gave the world the Cassette and the Jodie bag, and the fashion set still hasn’t gotten over it.

It’s the latest bag drop from Blazy’s Bottega and it’s only a matter of time before it lands on the arms of the chicest men and women you know. When the Jodie bag was born, it had no name; it was only after a shot of Jodie Foster shielding herself from flashbulbs with a large black Bottega bag that Bottega changed that. The Jodie comes in many sizes— maxi, standard, mini—but is always crafted in an intrecciato leather (except when it’s sheathed in cushy shearling) and made in Italy. Colors range from fuchsia pink to a perfect chocolate color—but there’s really no wrong choice.

There’s no lining, no zipper, no panels or seams, though there is a strip of leather at the base of the bag’s interior and a detachable pouchette for additional storage. It’s a shape and style that has been in embraced by both Lee and Blazy; and it’s unlikely it’s going anywhere anytime soon. Comes in mini ($5,000), small ($7,200), medium ($9,100), large ($9,900); comes in micro and maxi woven iterations.
