Fendi, the Rome curated, luxury fashion house have celebrated their 100th anniversary this year, a commemoration made clear in their show tonight. The Fall/winter 2025 runway show encapsulated honour and consistency within the collection. Shining accessories, brown undertones and long-line silhouettes filled the Milanese location as guests gazed from the sofa-like seating arrangement.
The collection was designed by Silvia Venturini Fendi, the woman known for shaping the fashion power houses’ modern identity. Silvia coherently created a collision between men and womenswear in the coed show, giving guests an interesting viewing. This seamless blend accurately illustrated the innovation of Fendi’s legacy.
Fendi’s iconic heritage material – fur, made a hefty appearance during their show tonight. Their hand-by-hand checked fur coats (which are ethically sourced) were strutted down the runway a number of times. Shapes of the coats varied however, ranging from cropped jackets to long-line and even fur collars making an appearance. This dark, husky colour palette due to the material alongside the minutely lit fashion space, created a powerful, sexy climate throughout the show.
The models hair and makeup appeared to be sleek, adding to the seamless portrayal of Fendi, their production and aura. The style encapsulated the famous ‘clean-girl aesthetic’ which has been buzzing around social media for a while now, keeping this new wave of fashion enthusiasts engaged. The array on the runway of this clean coiffure left a significant, clear sweep of the models’ faces, however their canvas was also clean-cut. The makeup was extremely standard – but glowy – juxtaposing Fendi’s normally playful outlook as a designer brand.
Regarding the accessory side of the collection a notable aspect can be raised. The noteworthy amount of gold nicely glistened throughout the venue, from thick bangles, to extravagant chokers, but when it came to earrings, it was all or nothing. A selection of models were seen styled with a large amount of gold hoops in one ear, with nothing to match the other side. This created an unbalanced but bold statement.
Slim, petite belts also made a heady performance within Fendi’s new wardrobe. Olive green, dusky pink and burnt orange skinny belts were paired with the fresh designs of this collection. Although demure and unassuming these belts are able to spruce up any outfit with their flattery and pop of colour.
Another Fendi staple that took to the floor was the valiant material of leather. A strong selection of knee-high leather boots took their first steps, paired with sunray pleated dresses, tailored suits tucked into them and narrow-fitting skirts. The dramatic string music that accompanied the start of the show accompanied with these striking boots was a sensory indication of Fendi’s highly anticipated arrival to Milan fashion week.
Fendi has reaffirmed their diligence in curating a timeless but spirited way of designing and have made a positive dent in Milan’s fashion week. One-hundred years ago the Italian, designer label made their conquests within the industry and they have managed to keep this success up a centenary later.
