FENDI Cruise 2027 Holiday: Roman Opulence Reimagined by Maria Grazia Chiuri

Roman opulence meets contemporary sophistication in the FENDI Holiday collection, part of the Cruise 2027 season designed by Maria Grazia Chiuri.

Deeply rooted in the House’s enduring connection to the Eternal City, the capsule reimagines timeless silhouettes, iconic leather goods, and cherished symbols with radiant, festive finishes. Drawing inspiration from the private spheres of Roman society, the collection captures a distinctive approach to celebration where centuries-old traditions seamlessly intertwine with modern life.

Captured through the lens of photographer Elina Kechicheva, the accompanying campaign unfolds within the sumptuous interiors of a Roman villa.

Drawing from classical painting techniques, the imagery balances intimacy and grandeur, from still-life tables laden with abundant fruit and open pomegranates to dramatic plays of chiaroscuro light and shadow.

In a poignant tribute to the House’s heritage, intricate embroidered screens crafted in collaboration with the Chanakya School of Craft depict tigers, honouring the strength, individuality, and collective spirit of the five Fendi sisters.

For women, classic wardrobe staples, ranging from sweeping evening gowns to delicate knit cardigans and lace skirts are elevated for the festive season with shimmering threads and precious embroideries that converse directly with FENDI’s couture traditions.

The House’s most celebrated bags, the Baguette® 26424 and Peekaboo®, are joined by the Croissant Bag rendered in crackled leather and sequins across shades of light gold, silver, and bronze. Footwear echoes this opulent spirit through the Very Colibrì slingback in glistening exotic leather and the bold, studded Vertigo pump, which nods to FENDI’s early luggage heritage.

For men, the collection balances time-honoured tailoring with a sharp, contemporary edge.

Impeccably cut suits are presented alongside rugged biker jackets and sumptuous shearling outerwear, underscoring FENDI’s unmatched authority in both bespoke garment construction and artisanal leathercraft.

Every look conveys an understated ease, tailored for effortless sophistication throughout the festive season.

The jewellery and accessories collection bridges antiquity with the Maison’s personal archives.

Architectural details carved into ancient Roman columns inspire the bold Cuneo stud and Heartbeat motifs. Simultaneously, Maria Grazia Chiuri revives the archival 5 Sisters collar, an iconic piece originally favoured by the Fendi sisters themselves recasting it alongside matching cuffs in gleaming metallic tones.

Revealing the private allure of Rome during the festive season, FENDI Holiday unites artistic history with modern glamour.
