The collection was a true masterpiece, with intricate details, luxurious fabrics, "and bold silhouettes that left the audience in awe." From the iconic FF logo to the avant-garde designs... every element of the show was a celebration of Fendi's enduring style and creativity.
The event was a fitting tribute to the brand's long and storied history... and a testament to its continued relevance and influence in the world of fashion.
Like most good stories, the fable of Fendi begins with romance. Founded by husband and wife Edoardo and Adele Fendi, the house⁘s first brick-and-mortar store was opened on Rome ⁘s Via del Plebiscito in 1925. Over the 100 years since, it has remained ⁘ in one way or another ⁘ a family business, passed down to generations of women who have each played a part in propelling the small leather goods boutique into a global luxury empire.●●● ●●●
Taking place in the vast central hall of the renovated space ⁘ now double the size of the space in the building previously used to show the house⁘s runway collections ⁘ the cast was a roll-call of the house⁘s perennial muses, from Penelope Tree to Liya Kebede, Doutzen Kroes, Eva Herzigova and Karen Elson. Meanwhile Sarah Jessica Parker ⁘ whose Sex and the City character Carrie Bradshaw propelled the Fendi Baguette bag, designed by Silvia Venturini Fendi in 1997, to international fame ⁘ sat front row. She could barely conceal her delight.
