Fendi has launched its first collection under the creative direction of Maria Grazia Chiuri for Fall and Winter 2026, where an atmosphere of restrained tension gives way to an intimate sense of emotional longing.
Behold, Maria Grazia Chiuri is now back at Fendi after decades away. Before she was reinventing Valentino and before the big, bold, graffiti mayhem at Christian Dior, Miss Chiuri was an accessories designer at Fendi during the Karl Lagerfeld era.
For FW26, Chiuri looks to the legacy of the five Fendi sisters, who transformed their parents’ fur and leather workshop into one of the world’s most influential luxury houses.
