Born from a creative spark found in the brand’s 1984 archives, Fendi’s latest collection unravels a captivating journey crafted under the artistic direction of Kim Jones.
This collection exudes a distinct free-spirited vibe, channeling its inspiration into an intriguing and unconventional palette of colors. The autumnal dominance of warm browns and Bordeaux creates a rich tapestry, complemented by the elongating effect of leather riding boots and thigh-high boots.
Each piece strategically contributes to enhancing the overall silhouette, embodying a sense of timeless elegance. Coats within this collection draw comfort from bathrobes, seamlessly blending plush coziness with a nod to traditional British styles.
The utilization of wools, inspired by the Aran and Guernesey techniques, adds depth and texture to the outerwear, creating a harmonious fusion of comfort and heritage. The knitwear becomes a canvas that beautifully evokes British style, particularly in the homage paid to fisherman sweaters, including the classic Guernsey knit style.
Sleek second-skin knitwear and utilitarian dresses seamlessly express a nonchalant feminine sensuality. The details, asymmetrical or layered sleeves, introduce a touch of casual chic. The careful interplay of knit patterns and textures speaks to the collection’s dedication to honoring the heritage of both Fendi and British fashion.
Delfina Delettrez Fendi, the Artistic Director of Jewelry, contributes to the collection with her distinctive touch. She designed jewelry featuring wide stackable bracelets and oversized chains designed to encircle the neck.
Silvia Venturini Fendi, the Artistic Director of Accessories and Menswear, takes the reins for the bags in this collection. Introducing the new Simply and Roll models, these bags offer versatility in wear, underscoring the diverse nature of Fendi women.
The bags, like the rest of the collection, seamlessly blend modern style with echoes of classical inspiration.
The movement-inspired prints, delicate fabrics, and traditional stitching techniques create a harmonious fusion that not only pays homage to the past, but also propels Fendi into the future.
