Envision the perfect summer palette, and you’ll have a glimpse into Fendi’s captivating spring/summer 2024 collection. This runway extravaganza was a testament to the art of color blocking, seamlessly blending warm, vibrant hues with the sleekness of a white runway. Creative director Kim Jones orchestrated a symphony of colors, with radiant oranges and yellows harmonizing with soft blues and neutral tones.
The collection paid homage to the unique style of women, exuding an air of quiet luxury. This vibrant tapestry was further enhanced by Fendi’s reimagined Selleria bag, a testament to the brand’s rich heritage. Inspired by the Italian word for saddle, the Selleria bag was originally crafted by Adele Fendi, the brand’s founder, with the assistance of skilled Roman saddlers. This handbag epitomizes Fendi’s Roman roots and has become an emblem of Italian craftsmanship.
Carefully handcrafted using techniques passed down from master saddlers, the Selleria bag is renowned for its signature saddle stitching and the use of supple Cuoio Romano leather. The collection skillfully merges past and present, introducing fresh designs while preserving the brand’s signature elements. The latest line-up showcases the reintroduction of the Peekaboo and Baguette bags in vibrant yellows, reds, and blues, as well as classic house browns.
The new Selleria collection reimagines the saddle stitching, replacing the traditional wax thread with supple leather in matching hues. This gives the bags, as well as the ready-to-wear pieces, a contemporary update while retaining their nostalgic charm. The collection also introduces a metal hardware form of the saddle stitch, showcased in the heels of shoes, anklets, and the Fendi writing on ear cuffs and bracelets from the Fendi Filo jewelry collection.
With its seamless fusion of tradition and modernity, combined with an unwavering commitment to quality hand craftsmanship, it’s no wonder that Fendi continues to leave an indelible mark on the ever-evolving fashion landscape.
