Description

“The Fendi Set” celebrates the Spring/Summer 2021 Fendi Couture collection, the first one designed by Kim Jones for Fendi. The book describes the designer’s creative process, examining his relationship with the Bloomsbury Set, the famous group of 20th century English intellectuals and artists who included key figures like Virginia Woolf, Duncan Grant and Vanessa Bell, the starting point and inspiration for the Couture Collection
Enriched by notes and letters from members of the Bloomsbury Group, with a foreword by Tilda Swinton and a short introduction by Kim Jones, the book ranges from pictures of Sussex and Kent, where the Bloomsbury Set operated, to a photo shoot of the Spring/Summer 2021 Couture Collection in Paris, the “Bloomsbury Roma” locations and photos of the Fendi family, including Anna Fendi, Silvia Venturini Fendi, Delfina Delettrez Fendi and Leonetta Luciano Fendi.
