The creations of Karl Lagerfeld, Kim Jones, Silvia Venturini Fendi, and Del na Delettrez Fendi are immortalized through sumptuous custom photography and in-depth pro les by a selection of leading fashion names. Alongside are dedications to Fendi’s collaborations with major artists and lm directors, commemorating its intrinsic connection to culture.
