Following Kim Jones’s Fendi debut this February – a star-studded spectacle during Paris Haute Couture week that counted Demi Moore, Kate Moss and Bella Hadid among its cast – the Roman maison welcomes its fresh recruit with a capsule collection. Available for just two weeks from 15 April, the limited-edition Kim Jones Fendi offering looks to both the heritage brand’s archives and the London designer’s own first Fendi designs for inspiration.

For his spring/summer 2021 designs, Jones had listed Virginia Woolf and the work – and, in the case of Charlestone House, also the home – of the Bloomsbury Group among his influences. And so, the capsule collection includes Fendi Baguette and Peekaboo bags – both are house signature styles – finessed with pearls or prints that nod to the Bloomsbury Group’s visual legacy. The wardrobe is completed with draped satin dresses (gowns too make an appearance), cotton shirting and tailored separates fashioned from supple wool.
