Fendi – Autumn 2021

Silvia Venturini Fendi’s latest Autumn Winter 2021 collection for Fendi Men is an optimistic adventure framed within a game of illusions. A cinematic sequence directed by the Italian artist Nico Vascellari sets the scene for ‘What Is Normal Today ft. Silvia’ – an exclusive dance-pop track composed by Not Waving.

An immersive 360° mirrored tunnel creates the illusion of infinitely multiplied models whilst entirely alone, as a maze of suspended doorways is framed in colored neon beneath the pulsating ceiling of a futuristic music video.

A broad spectrum of menswear classics is twisted with playfulness, emerging from darkness into full Technicolor in the Fendi Autumn Winter 2021 collection. The result is an unabashed celebration of color and light, and a universal message of solidarity and connection in surreal times. A jewel palette sees emerald, vermillion, saffron, orange, fuchsia, cobalt, and periwinkle color-blocked against black, camel, and charcoal, as linings, inlays, and slashed seams flash with contrasting textures and shades.

Multifunctionality and form unite in reversible workwear and relaxed outerwear silhouettes. Belted overcoat and trench shapes in cashmere flannel, satin, striped fur, and shearling are infused with a cozy peignoir attitude and piped pajama hemlines bring the indoors out and the outdoors in. The conventions of ribbed and cable knitting are reimagined as long johns, cardigan scarves, mitten cuffs, and a wrapped ‘sleeve’ neck sweater for a weird and wonderful take on the ‘new normal’.

An icon of the London underground scene, the multidisciplinary artist and performer Noel Fielding provides a series of psychedelic artworks for the collection, abstracting the Fendi logo and emphasizing the season’s cosmic spirit through his multicolored scribble art.

The accessories collection revels in the season’s chromatic palette. The treatment of color-matched leathers, matte satin, and hardware creates dipped-effect Baguette and flatpack shopper shapes. Miniature luggage styles reprise an embossed stripe FF monogram leather as backpacks and crossbody pouches. Shearling FF slippers and slip-on laced or buckle sabots continue the collection’s indoor-outdoor theme, joining quilted ankle boots and the Fendi Force Light FF lug-sole combat styles.
