Kim Jones’ rtw debut was a masterclass in investment dressing with its tawny colors, sumptuous fabrics and restrained flourishes.

“I want all my friends to go, ‘I want that straight away,'” the designer says.

Nineteen looks were presented, paraded through a stunning glass maze erected in the form of Fendi’s famous double-F logo.

The show marks artistic director Kim Jones’ first collection with the design house as well as Fendi’s first spring couture collection.

Sébastien Jondeau, the late designer’s longtime bodyguard and personal assistant, has written a book.

The designer offered WWD an exclusive preview of the new Fendi men’s collection, debuting digitally at Milan Fashion Week on Jan. 16.

Fendi is unveiling a new dedicated web site as it plans the opening of a new leather goods factory in Tuscany.

The audacious spectacle foreshadowed China’s importance — and ignited the trend to event marketing and itinerant fashion shows.

Silvia Venturini Fendi entertained the 130 guests of Fendi’s show with a gorgeous collection celebrating the beauty of small things.

It will mark Jones’s first foray into women’s wear, and puts him in a rare league straddling two top luxury brands.

Fendi allowed Chloe and Halle Bailey to have full creative freedom in styling, producing and fronting the new #MeAndMyPeekaboo series of videos and the company is also launching the first ever worldwide video and image campaign in honor of the Peekaboo featuring actress and producer Zoey Deutch.

The capsule is called “Fendi Prints On” and will be launched online on Oct. 14 and in 52 Fendi stores on Oct. 16.

Wang, who is also Fendi’s brand ambassador in China, will hold a concert to mark the launch on July 21 in Chengdu.

Haute couture is both grand and deeply personal. That unique fusion felt particularly powerful during the recent shows.

The designer’s easing into the driver’s seat is a “natural evolution,” said the chairman and ceo of Fendi.
