Earlier this year, Fendi presented its fall 2022 collection, and once again, it wowed. Designed by fashion’s favorite duo, Fendi’s fall collection is Silvia Venturini Fendi and Kim Jones’ exploration of House history. The inspiration for this collection is rooted in Kim Jones’ rediscovery of the Fendi Spring/Summer 1986 collection. Jones’ love for the collection reignited as he was researching House archives.
Jones lamented that despite these collections being from the past, they still somehow feel very much relevant for the now. Relevant they are, oozing a romantic softness that also felt strong. As for the bags, the collection largely focused on Fendi staples reinvented, which serve as a compliment to the ready-to-wear.
There was one new silhouette presented on the runway too. Unique and intriguing, that bag is finally here, and today we’re taking a closer look at this new little lady.
