The Astrology Summer Capsule captures the essence of the summer season with its playful color palette, lightweight fabrics, and intricate celestial detailing. In fact, Artistic Director Kim Jones has revived and updated the iconic star sign designs Karl Lagerfeld originally introduced to the world. Starring a palette of white, pink, blue, brown, orange, and black adapted from Fendi’s recent ready-to-wear offering, alongside the written signs of the zodiac in both English and Italian and astrological prints originally drawn by Lagerfeld. The same sporty silhouettes once worn on the 1993 runway become this season’s statement swimwear.
