MILAN
Furs aside, Fendi’s grown-up “forever”
pieces are collectible in their own right. While
there’s no one signature Fendi silhouette, the
A-line comes close. This season, it’s a soft,
mid-calf A-line skirt, its semi-sheer sexiness
balanced by feminine tailoring in menswear
fabrics—such as a suit with a boxy double-
layer jacket, and a curvy, double-breasted
coat with mink cuffs over a longer skirt. Red
was a standout in both slinky sheer dresses
and a fabulous red coat with pin-tucked
gathers at the waist—and also as a must-
have accent, as in the sealing-wax-red
boots, some over the knee, which anchored
all the looks. As for the bags, the single F
logo appeared on metal closures, while the
double F was a graphic print on handbags.
