British 80s-Inspired Collections

The Fendi Fall 2018 Line is Inspired by a Handbook from 1982

— February 23, 2018 — Luxury
The new Fendi Fall 2018 collection draws inspiration from 1982, specifically from "The Official Sloan Ranger Handbook." This publication was what set the idea of the British upper class concept exemplified by none other than Diana Spencer, whom was to be the future Princess of Wales at the time. The Fendi Fall 2018 collection embraces the 80s influence and incorporates it into the pieces through boxy silhouettes.

The series is comprised of plaid details and checks in a neutral color palette of gray and brown. There are also accents of navy blue, deep purple, and olive green as well. The collection's boxy structures are translated with over-sized fits and padded shoulders. There is also a more delicate selection of romantic dresses with flower embellishments, and pleated skirts and dresses. The luxury label includes more updated choices to reach out to the Millennial crowd with fur sweaters and Western boots.
