FENDI PRESENTS A CHARMING ASTROLOGICAL-INSPIRED LINE THAT INCLUDES BEACHWEAR AND STUNNING JEWELLERY

This summer, prepare to make a cosmical fashion statement with FENDI's brand new Astrology capsule collection. Immerse yourself in the celestial vibes of this swim and beachwear line specially crafted for you to truly embrace your unique star sign.

Drawing inspiration from FENDI's iconic Spring/Summer 1990 and Spring/Sum- mer 1993 collections, as well as the visionary touch of Artistic Director of Couture and Womenswear, Kim Jones, this extraordinary lineup seamlessly blends the House's rich history with the latest summer trends.

The Astrology collection features a captivating colour palette of white, pink, blue, brown, orange, and black, which is adapted directly from FENDI's recent ready-to-wear offerings.

Alongside the written signs of the zodiac (in English and Italian), and original astrological prints by the late Karl Lagerfeld himself, this collection exudes a bold irreverence, tapping into FENDI's inherent sense of fun and functionality—ideally suited for those under the signs of Libra and Leo.

The same sporty silhouettes that once graced the 1993 runway now make a statement in this season's swimwear: think recycled lycra and a multi-purpose waterproof pochette, where FENDI's sublime creativity and versatility meet right in the middle.

Venturing beyond swimwear, FENDI presents a fresh range of ready-to-wear garments that effortlessly transition from poolside days to sun-kissed evenings. Infused with an air of effortless elegance, this collection showcases draped satin kaftans, dresses, separates, and blousons adorned with fabulous Astrology print, perfect for those star signs like Taurus and Sagittarius who simply adore the finer things in life.

The silk foulards exude a chic nonchalance as they are casually knotted with a touch of insouciance. FENDI's unrivalled craftsmanship shines through in the languid summer knits, including airy crochet dresses subtly showcasing the iconic FF logo, as well as form-flattering viscose and stylishly boyish cashmere jumpers. Sun-bleached denim and silk jersey add a gentle sportswear influence to this offering, reflecting the signature style often found in the closets of Cancer and Pisces.

For the menswear collection, Artistic Director of Accessories and Menswear Silvia Venturini Fendi presents a laidback energy with louche tailoring and slouching fits, perfectly capturing the spirit of the season. Look for astrology-printed silk shirts, nylon boardshorts, and jersey t-shirts perfect for a stylish beachfront wardrobe for Aries and Gemini gentlemen.

Meanwhile, FENDI's signature bags and footwear get a stylish makeover in shadow leather blue and beige. Discover the hand-sprayed and brushed FENDI Cloud slider, FENDI Flow trainer, and the sleek FENDI O' Lock summer moccasin. Adding a touch of celestial charm, the men's Baguette Soft Trunk is now showcased with zodiac symbols.

For women, a spellbinding array of accessories captures the essence of summer. Striped and woven handbags pay homage to coastal beachfronts, permeating iconic styles with a touch of Mediterranean flair. Meticulous astrological embroideries adorn seasonal iterations of the Peekaboo, Baguette, and FENDI First bags, featuring vibrant threads and pearls on denim, canvas, and jacquard bodies—irresistible gems for Capricorn women all over the world.

Last, but not least, the Baguette heel takes on new forms with a strappy sandal and a midheel pump, while the iconic FENDI First heel gets a summer makeover in raffia and rope. Explore new styles like the knotted slide, double-banded slide, and a fresh summer sandal. Let’s not forget about jewellery, as this collection is completed with an enchanting selection by Artistic Director of Jewellery, Delfina Delettrez Fendi, who reimagines the astrological signs as sleek charms that can be worn as a mono-earring or as a necklace pendant, accompanied by a delicate crystal stud. When combined, the 12 signs create a unique and eye-catching statement necklace, something perhaps our Aquarian friends will adore as they embrace their individuality and love for distinctive style.
