The luxury label, part of French luxury goods
conglomerate LVMH, showcased clothes by Karl Lagerfeld and
Silvia Venturini Fendi in colors redolent of sea, sand and
exotic landscapes, and in fabrics as light as gossamer.
The show, on the second day of Milan Fashion Week, was held in
Fendi's Milan headquarters.
"In a world where Italian Futurism meets tropical travel, the
collection emerges in a swirl of Caribbean colors and flavors,"
a style note said.
First down the catwalk was a geometric outfit with an
off-the-shoulder, deep v-neck jacket in ocean blue and red and
yellow stripes, matched with a knee-length skirt in the same
symmetrical lined motif.
The geometry of the lines recurred in many of the otherwise airy
and floaty designs. Fluid organza blouses were matched with
straight leather skirts, dresses were off the shoulder and tops
and skirts were decorated with palm leaf shapes.
Models including Gigi Hadid, sister Bella and Kendall Jenner
strutted to drum and bass music and the calls of tropical birds.
The collection included the new "Mon Tresor" bucket bag, the
"Runaway" tote and new versions of the "Kan I F" bag, a company
note said.
Fendi showed off fur coats in different lengths, decorated with
stripes, flowers or the group's F logo.
Milan Fashion Week runs until Monday. Also showcasing their
collections on Thursday are Italy's Prada and eclectic brand
Moschino.
