Fendi Men’s Spring 2022
In a world that necessarily got much smaller for all us, Silvia Venturini Fendi found inspiration in her work environment.
“I strongly believe that what is close and familiar can be as much as inspiring as what is far and exotic,” she during a preview on the set of the short movie by artist Nico Vascellari that portrays the Fendi’s men’s spring 2022 collection.
Palazzo Della Civiltà Italiana, that houses Fendi headquarters in Rome, served as the grand set for the video. It also offered Venturini Fendi the privileged point of observation on the Eternal City that deeply influenced the creation of her latest collection.
Looking at her native city from the top of the palazzo, one of the tallest buildings in Rome, she started thinking about proportions and perspectives, that, along with a study of the changing colors of the Roman sky across the different seasons, became the focal points of her beautiful lineup.
While sticking to uncomplicated clothes that reflect the needs of the real life, the designer developed an exciting wardrobe that was luxurious, but also light and playful.
Colors played a key role. Neutrals were juxtaposed with lemon yellow, lime, ice blue, lilac, pistachio green and peony pink, sometimes mixed and matched on abstract patterns.
