The newly-appointed Creative Director pays tribute to those who came before him with Fendi's Fall/Winter 2021 collection.

After a successful debut at <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/art/joshua-vides-fendi-artist-mca-chicago-converse-sneakers" target="_blank">Fendi</a>&nbsp;with his <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/fendi-spring-summer-2021-haute-couture" target="_blank">Spring/Summer 2021 Haute Couture</a> show, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/men/dior-men-peter-doig-collab-kim-jones" target="_blank">Kim Jones</a> unveils his first ready-to-wear collection for Fall/Winter 2021 with a series of pieces that blend Jones&#39; own creative vision with some of the House&#39;s&nbsp;signature codes. As Creative Director of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/dior-men-fall-winter-2021" target="_blank">Dior Men</a>, Jones was known for his sharp tailoring and&nbsp;imaginative concepts. Here, he applies the same ideas to womenswear, designing a collection of luxurious garments, suitable for every occasion, that circles the bandwagon of muted pink, nudes, and greys.

To christen a new era of the House of Fendi, Jones&#39; collection pays homage to the legends that preceded him. &quot;The Fendi family are women of intellect who work hard &ndash; and that&rsquo;s what I wanted to celebrate,&rdquo; says the designer. &ldquo;A powerful dynasty.&rdquo;&nbsp; The fur coats and pinstripe notifs reference the early style of the five <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/influential-fashion-families-hermes-fendi" target="_blank">Fendi sisters</a>.&nbsp;Silvia Venturini Fendi&#39;s signature shirt jacket has been reconfigured into a ruggedly chic shearling. Jones continues, &quot;I&rsquo;m taking the amazing, strong women who I both know and work with, and listening to their needs.&nbsp;There&rsquo;s a usefulness to the collection, explored in a chic, timeless way.&quot; The designer also referenced one of the brand&#39;s most iconic leaders, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/remembering-karl-lagerfeld" target="_blank">Karl Lagerfeld</a>, with&nbsp;subtle inclusions of the&nbsp;Karligraphy monogram, as well as a reimagined version of the Fendi First shoe.

However, overall, the collection is completely Jones. Not only does the audience note his signature&nbsp;pension for clean lines and rich texture, but his use of discreet embroidery, reflective silk ensembles, and minute floral detailing call back&nbsp;to his own work within the brand&#39;s legacy from his Spring/Summer 2021 Haute Couture collection.
