FENDI MAKES MONOCHROME MAGIC WITH JOSHUA VIDES
American artist Joshua Vides immersed visitors in a whimsical world straight out of a comic book with a fashionmeetsfood collaboration with Fendi that resulted in the Fendi Ca e and Peekaboo Bar at Harrods in London last year. Now, Vides and Fendi have teamed up again, with the former lending his signature 2D marker style to the latter’s apparel and accessories. This backpack serves as the perfect blank canvas for Vides’ trippy trompe l’oeil visuals, while Fendi’s savoir faire elevates the staple accessory from sporty functionality to a statement on craft and creativity.

DREAM DESTINATIONS
“That’ll be Barcelona and Bali. I have very fond memories of my 2019 Bali getaway, recharging at Potato Head Beach Club and tucking into three delish meals a day at Warung Eropa... I’m really counting down to the next time I can go on a holiday.”
