Delfina Delettrez Fendi talks exclusively to Vogue about her first high jewellery collection for the fashion house established by her great-grandparents, ahead of its unveiling at Paris Couture Week today.
To say Delfina Delettrez Fendi has her hands full is an understatement. Dividing her time between home in Rome and her atelier in Paris, the fourth generation member of the Fendi family fashion empire juggles her role as the maison’s artistic director of jewellery with the demands of her own eponymous jewellery brand.
It was the morning of the Met Gala when we finally spoke, and Delettrez Fendi was in her final fitting for fashion’s biggest night out. It was her first Met, and an emotional occasion given that the theme honoured Karl Lagerfeld, whose 54-year collaboration with Fendi remains one of the longest in fashion history, and who she was close with since childhood. “I wanted to wear Karl,” says Delettrez Fendi, 36. And she did – literally.
The joyfully cartoonish fabric of her beaded gown was from Fendi’s spring/summer 1988 collection – based on a Lagerfeld drawing of himself and his muse Anna Piaggi – while Kim Jones, Fendi’s current artistic director of couture, provided the dress’s silhouette from his spring/summer 2023 collection. A matching Baguette completed the family circle.
