Good Morning Vogue Takes You Inside the World of Fendace With Fendi, Versace, and Naomi Campbell
Nearly every lucky guest in attendance at Fendace, Sunday night’s surprising and serendipitous link-up between Kim Jones, Silvia Venturini Fendi, and Donatella Versace, echoed the same sentiment: “Nothing like this has ever happened before.” Indeed, two Italian mega-brands working side by side goes way against the grain in the hyper-competitive fashion landscape. But the remark we heard even more frequently was that this project was born of friendship: between Venturini Fendi, Jones, and Versace, but also between the late Gianni Versace and Karl Lagerfeld, who worked alongside Venturini Fendi for 51 years. Naomi Campbell is the connection between them all: The super was dear friends with Gianni and Lagerfeld and remains a regular in Jones’s and Donatella’s shows.
Just hours before the big Fendace reveal, Vogue contributor Raven Smith shared a car with Campbell to discuss the project in our latest episode of Good Morning Vogue. “Donatella doesn’t open up Gianni’s home to many people,” Campbell says. “I hope now that it will [inspire] our industry to open up and share with each other. You have to share.” In the episode above, she looks back on her favorite memories with the Fendi and Versace families, while Smith chats with more guests to gauge their reactions to the groundbreaking event.
