"Silvia Venturini Fendi talked about the collection being 'on the road,' she meant the high velocity that is sweeping Fendi into the future. Movement was everything in the collection. Skins were finely slashed vertically to create an optical quiver; tattered organdies floated like feathers. There was a subtle shimmer to the film of what looked like perforated plastic that coated a patch worked fur shift. (One way to waterproof your furry finery.) But it was less the craftsmanship - never in doubt with Fendi - than the attitude on the catwalk that distinguished today's show. Karl Lagerfeld has become paterfamilias to a whole tribe of bright - and very excitable - young things, like Cara Delvingne, walking exclusively for Fendi in Milan. 'She's a completely new sort of girl,' he said postshow. 'Not like anyone who's come before.' And in response, the collection that he and Silvia do together has taken on a character not like any Fendi that's come before. In a word, young. Oh, so young." - style.com
