Inspired by Karl Lagerfeld's futurism at Fendi, Kim Jones celebrates the humanism at the heart of this future. “There is the body, the silhouette within the silhouette, the person and the manual work of haute couture. “The collection is about structure and decoration, where both become indivisible,” according to the press release.
The Fendi couture show, curated by artistic director Kim Jones, fuses precision and emotion. Inspired by the futurism of Karl Lagerfeld, the collection highlights humanism in the future of fashion. Silhouettes danced across the water, featuring geometric patterned cuts and flexible crocodile materials. Feather-shaped fringes and transparent elements created fluidity.
With a shiny construction, the Fendi Couture silhouettes seemed to dance on the water. The show began and ended with a new Scatola (box) silhouette, which introduces cutting with geometric patterns. The flexible crocodile ran throughout the collection and the embroidery, like a second skin, emphasized the wearer's every movement with extreme precision. Draped silhouettes with feather-like fringes and ultra-light fluidity. Transparency unites body and garments as one. Shibari tops demurely reveal the beauty of busts, while cashmere and vicuña dresses follow every curve.
The palette evolves from dark to light, culminating in shimmering silver, enhanced with gorgeous accessories designed by Delfina Delettrez Fendi, artistic director of Fendi jewelry. Baguette bags designed by Fendi menswear and accessories artistic director Silva Venturini, Fendi echo the materials of the clothing, from crocodiles to embroidery. Fendi Gems Baguette bags make their runway debut, and a striking Mini Baguette bag stood out with exquisite craftsmanship, including a diamond-encrusted buckle.
