“Anyone who’s forward-thinking and changes the way society lives is interesting to me. That’s something that I’ve always stood for in my life,” says fendi's Artistic Director Kim Jones.
As for his design philosophy for the brand, Jones says that “it’s about intelligent, strong, independent women. Women get so much more beautiful when they’ve got the confidence of being slightly older. I like celebrating women of different ages, and I’ve got friends of different ages and it just seems natural. They are all obsessed—I get harassed nonstop, from Courtney Love to Lily Allen! That makes me thrilled: Dressing the people I love and admire is really important.
“With Kim it’s about hard work, but also a shared sense of humor—there’s a subtle irony that is always present at Fendi,” notes Delettrez.Photographed by Simon Upton,While he was working intensively on reshaping Fendi—and amid his ongoing work for Dior—Jones was looking for a country house in bucolic Sussex that would provide a weekend respite from his relentless work schedule, ultimately finding the perfect place online: a beautiful 18th-century brick-and-flint-stone rectory out of an E. M.
Jones’s library here and in London—where he lives in a brutalist house of punctured concrete, steel mesh, and glass with an indoor lap pool, a striking modernist rug designed by Francis Bacon , and a further embarrassment of Bloomsburiana—is remarkable.
“What impresses me about Donatella and Silvia,” says Jones of the collection, dubbed Fendace , cooked up over a shared dinner, “is that they both know their companies by heart—it’s that sisterhood of Italian fashion dynasties.”
