As many fashion creatives would say, dressing up should always be fun. Whether it is through your color selection, the way you layer your pieces, or your pick of silhouettes, there are many ways one can express playfulness. For some, the best way to do that is through accessories. Think of lip-shaped bags, human anatomy-inspired jewelry, or hats in different styles. For luxury brand Fendi, people can add fun and flair to their look through charms.
During its women’s autumn-winter 2024 runway show, the Italian maison unveiled its latest accessory creation in collaboration with confectionery brand Chupa Chups. The piece, a lollipop holder, is designed by Silvia Venturini Fendi, the brand’s artistic director of accessories and menswear.
A testament to Fendi’s playful spirit combined with the highest leather expertise, the lollipop holder is crafted by the maison’s leather artisans using soft leather that bears the Selleria macro-stitching, a symbol of its 100-year-long history and a tribute to Roman master saddlers. Completing the design is its signature FF logo in metal and magnetic closure to secure a lollipop inside. Adding exclusivity to this collector’s item while paying homage to the maison’s legacy, this accessory comes with five co-branded and limited-edition Chupa Chups x Fendi lollipops, a nod to the five Fendi sisters.
The lollipop holder is available as a charm and necklace. For us here at Style Weekend, we prefer it as a charm to add to the brand's latest creation, the Simply Fendi bag. Sophisticated, minimal, and effortlessly utilitarian, the bag is inspired by an archival shape from the late 90’s. Its luxurious Corvara calf leather gives it a glossy finish while its tone-on-tone FF buckle adds a touch of sophistication.
The Simply Fendi bag is realized in three versatile and distinctive sizes to cover all the needs of the modern lifestyle: a Large and a Medium carry-all and a bold Mini. Apart from the one created in Corvara calf leather, the bag also comes in iconic FF jacquard and sculpted shearling.
The Fendi x Chupa Chups lollipop holders and Simply Fendi bags are available in its boutiques worldwide and on fendi.com this July.
