The Fendi<\/strong> fashion show for the season fall\/winter 2019-20<\/strong> is an emotional tribute by the Italian brand to the recently deceased designer Karl Lagerfeld<\/strong> and to his 54 years as creative director of the fashion house.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Outside the Fendi fashion show on Thursday in Milan, there was the usual crowd of an anti-fur protestors group, but inside, the story was completely different.
\nAs soon as they entered the location, the Italian house homage to Karl Lagerfeld<\/strong> was immediately warned: above the entrance of the catwalk, there was indeed an installation with his famous signature<\/strong>, at each place the guests found a moving tribute card and the collection, under the notes of “Sono Triste”<\/em><\/strong> by Ornella Vanoni, proposed the latest sketches by Lagerfeld for Fendi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sono triste, anche adesso. Triste perche non rispondi,
\nNon torni pi\u00f9.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

It is certainly no secret that Karl Lagerfeld was not only incredibly prolific, but also a master in his craft.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Fall 2019 collection has in fact introduced new interpretations<\/strong> of some Fendi classic pieces, including the Baguette bag<\/strong> that, recently recovered, is undergoing a great boost from the luxury house with the aim of reviving its nostalgic magic. In this season, the handbag is updated in two versions<\/strong>, one in faux leather with a raised pad and another with a multi-strap harness. We are confident that we will see both versions very soon on Instagram.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

While many streetstyle stars wore their best version of the Fendi logomania collection, Karl had foreseen a change of direction<\/strong> for the label with a new “Karligraphy double-F”<\/strong> logo, the double F crossed in italics, putting it practically on everything, from tights and socks to high-necked suits and to shirts and furs.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What Lagerfeld always knew how to do well was to balance modernity with sophistication, and all of this also appears in this latest collection.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The garments, all with a tailored cut<\/strong>, were sturdy and tight at the waist<\/strong>, the dresses were adorned with large bows<\/strong> on the front that extended to the back, while the outerwear<\/strong> featured details in laser-cut leather or with a zip. Elegance, classicism and femininity in shapes<\/strong>, with a hint of modernity through fabrics and shades<\/strong>. This was Karl<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The final of the catwalk was very emotional.<\/p>\n

The “Heroes”<\/strong> by David Bowie in this case the models, have made their last run on the catwalk with their eyes covered by tears<\/strong> while the crowd equally touched, staged a standing ovation at the appearance of the creative partner Silvia Venturini Fend<\/strong>i.<\/p>\n

In the end Fendi has shown a video interview<\/strong>\u00a0 made a few years ago, in which the Keiser<\/strong> talked about his first day of work at the fashion house<\/strong>. “I remember it very well,”<\/em> says Lagerfeld in the movie drawing a sketch of his outfit. “I had a Cerruti hat, long hair, black sunglasses and a printed lavalli\u00e8re tie, and on top I was wearing a Northfolk jacket, an English hunting jacket, with trousers \u00e0 la fran\u00e7aise and boots, and a bag I had found in Milan. It was the 1965″<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n
