Drawing inspiration from Spring/Summer 1999, the Fendi Spring 2024 RTW collection is a walk through Rome, where the ordinary is amplified and becomes extraordinary.

A sense of duality permeates the collection. Simultaneously pragmatic and playful, masculine tailoring and materials, such as the finest kid mohair, are applied to a more fluid and feminine sensibility when combined with silks and knits. Masculine utility and comfort come together with a feminine flourish, with the agency of the wearer in mind.

A playful and abstract exploration of the FF logo is once more found in the jewelry and in the clothing collection, where it reaches its bold apotheosis in completely abstract colour-blocking in intarsia leathers and structured, strapless knit dresses. The off-kilter palette – itself a signature were also found and reworked such as the acid yellow coated linen slip and the trompe l’oeil silks made for today with silicone Framis prints.

In Silvia Venturini Fendi’s bags, a plethora of styles, sizes, materials and techniques reflect the character of the different wearers. Eschewing the idea of one diktat, the collection takes in the sweep of Fendi pop iconography through Peekaboo and Baguette, Origami and first bags, while introducing the new Flip, a shopper that folds into a clutch, with a playful, colour-blocked construction.
