Silvia Venturini Fendi entertained the 130 guests of Fendi's show with a gorgeous collection celebrating the beauty of small things.
What did Silvia Venturini see through the windows of her Roman house during lockdown? The blue sky, as well as trees with their new leaves moving in the wind. What did she rediscover during the long days spent with her family at home? The pleasure of small things and traditions, and the meaning embedded in common household objects, such as a grandmother’s tablecloth or the trousseau passed from one generation to the other.
“In such a dramatic moment, I think that talking about fashion only in terms of clothes is not appropriate,” she said before the show. “I believe it’s more relevant to talk about values connected to fashion and in my case, being raised in my family, fashion is something absolutely meaningful.”The rigor of the Italian craftsmanship combined with a feminine, romantic sensibility added up to a powerful and charming spring effort, where the domestic was elevated to ethereal.
In a reiteration of Fendi’s signature illusion effects, shaved mink made for an incredible pair of lace-like Bermuda shorts and for a cardigan that mimicked the texture of cable knitwear. Sheer dresses, caftans, shirts and pants were printed with shadowy images of window views in blues and browns. The accessories highlighted the domestic inspiration of the collection. Along with the iconic Peekaboo and Baguette styles were recycled plastic buckets, picnic baskets, canvas logo totes, as well as grandmother’s crochet pouches — all ordinary objects that in the Fendi world received an immediate va-va-voom.
