Fendi S/S 2026 Milan

[carla56]

I found it painful to watch, because I usually love Silvia when she’s alone, last season was one of my fave collections of the season, but this is tragic! Beautiful bags but the clothes are atrocious. Really loved the cast

Get rid of the vintage floral designs, close the bags, and subtract the socks & sneakers, and this collection would be perfect. For me, she gets A- for the women's, and that's based solely on such small, miniscule errors in my opinion.

I'm loving the coat w/ the colorful, interwoven strips. But that was only one piece. I think this would've been stronger and more exciting had they went further with that in the collection.

The mens is...well...your average menswear excursion. It neither adds nor detracts from the collection. Luckily, you can tell it was designed in tandem w/ the womens, so that's a big plus for me. And, seriously, if you were to put a gun to my head and forced me to wear the perforated pieces, I wouldn't say No.

Overall, like her previous shows, this was a pretty collection. This reminds me of that version of "pretty" that I used to associate with old BV w/ Tomas Maier. I miss those collections quite much.

Horrible. One of the worst Fendi shows ever. Complete 180 from last season, which was one of the best shows of the fashion month.
Last season we had rich, opulent and borderline old money tackiness sciura milanese and 6 months later we have this watered down version of Prada by Raf Simons? Such a frumpy and juvenile looking collection. I absolutely loathe flower prints that look like toddlers scribbles.
The accessories looked kinda weak too. It started quite promising with the color block looks but then verged on disaster with the hideous sportswear and the flowers. Wish the design studio used the color block theme to reinterpret iconic Karl's collections that featured color blocking, such as SS13 and FW15.
Another flop casting just like the previous season, typical PGDM mafia stunt with a bunch of random models from either the 90's / 00's that have nothing to do with either Fendi or Karl. Iselin Steiro has never been a Fendi girl...the token plus sized models (2 out of...50? Groundbreaking)...and what the hell was Devyn Garcia doing with that random spin?

I liked it a lol! utilitarian chic! tons of good ideas. good cast even though I missed some faces such as Vittoria and Liu Wen.

Silvia is perfectly capable of leading Fendi on her own.
brava!

Forget the Rapture: the Pradafication of Fendi is the real end of the world.

 

[Cocteau Stone]

Well admittedly I’ve never found S/S to be the strongest showings for Fendi at large as of late. Especially with Sylvia, she seems more at ease doing the Fall season with all the outer wear and tailoring.

There’s just a lot of random things in one here. It becomes visually very corporate looking, attempting to cater to all but not really strong enough to actually seem like a connected collection as a whole. If they took one part of what seems to be four to five distinct sections of this it would have excelled. And again, leave the menswear for men’s fashion season. There are some nice odes to their late 90s to early 2000s collections here that Karl did, but why so many of them? Tone it down.

I loved it ! it was fashion, but it was mostly commerce and manufacturing.Good italian manufacturing new clothes for spring. It got better at the as it went along. It reminded me a lot of the ninety shows from genny, marni, old time milan no real theme because its not necessary. She is much better at fall collections last season was amazing and some real fur back on the runway.

So bad …. Omg, so bad

 

[Creative]

what was that? It has everything! And everything was ugly.

 

[lhhbl]

Thought it was ugly. The experimentation didn't really work here because the products are bad. Some shoes and bags look cute but not enough.
A let down after last season's hit!

 

[Monsieur Cristobal]

I didn't expect this to be so polarising.
To me this is a cute, sugary, inoffensive, light version of Prada when Prada was something.
Clearly, when your strength is Fur with capital F, it is easier to shine in the winter season.

 

[Squizree]

Quite disappointing after last season's smash guy. This seems rather uninspired and characterless, and looks like it's intended to be a filler collection.

 

[jeremydante]

The weaved looks did not feel like Fendi to me.
The colors were fun, but it felt like watered down Prada.

Solid casting, and staging was decent; but it felt a little bland for me, overall.
