MILAN, September 24 - At Milan Fashion Week, Fendi showcased a collection inspired by the legendary Italian performer Raffaella Carra. Creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri presented a mix of nightclub and intimate looks, featuring mostly black, sheer, and airy dresses with plunging necklines, backless cuts, and fringes. Models also wore feather boas, as they strided in front of 1970s-inspired mirrors.
Carra, known for her energetic dance moves and exposed midriff, influenced the collection, with Chiuri praising her "strong awareness of her body and a great sense of fashion."
The men at Fendi returned to tunics over jeans, while women revived their sequined caps and furs, symbolizing the brand. Anti-fur protesters staged demonstrations outside the show, which was attended by celebrities like Monica Bellucci and Bang Chan of the South Korean group Stray Kids.
Earlier in the day, Sardinian designer Antonio Marras presented a nostalgic collection of military jackets, grey suits with floral embroidery, wide grey suits, deconstructed parkas, and wide grey suits. The Milan-based designer described the collection as evoking "the day after the night, when you're still wearing your party clothes and have sea salt on your skin."
