Established by the brand’s creative director Karl Lagerfeld, Fendi’s iconic double F logo is now an international emblem of quality and style.  Lagerfeld changed, moulded and reinterpreted clothing materials winning international acclaim.  Fendi emerged as a brand renowned for its elegance, craftmanship, innovation and style.  Today the reputation of Fendi is synonymous with tradition, experimentation and creativity as exemplified in the Fendi Womens Ski Coats Collection.
