Where Italian Futurism meets the tropics. 

 

 

Fendi looked to the deep blue sea for a source of inspiration. Full of colouful sheer fabrics including coral, green, pink and sand, where models cascaded in airy silhouettes draped off the shoulder with full skirts. Checkerboard patterned fur coats, organza blouses, and rugby polo shirts paired over with striped bras were also part the collection.

Kaia Gerber opens the show in a feminine satin ensemble with multi-directional stripes, however, the talk of the moment were the delicate nude shimmer separates crafted with beaded organza and palm leaves (a true Caribbean flavor). Once again we saw the stocking boots trend, but this time they were pasted all over with the double F logo and this season’s futurist florals.

The logo-mania collection marked the first appearance of the Mon Trésor Bag- a mini bucket bag in exotic leather and embellished with metallic pearls, also the new Runway tote comes to life in tartan mesh with a big rounded handle; handbags were accented with monkey and banana logo charms for the ultimate tropical feel.
