Celebrities Front Row at Fendi’s 100-Year Celebration

A century of Fendi? Now that calls for a fashion spectacle, and the Fall 2025 Women’s and Men’s show did not disappoint. This wasn’t just a runway—it was a celebration of a fashion house that has remained at the forefront of luxury for a hundred years. And what better way to kick things off than with a touching family moment?

Dardo and Tazio, the 7-year-old twin sons of Delfina Delettrez Fendi and Nico Vascellari, had the honour of officially opening the show. The twins swung open the grand wooden doors, revealing the models and setting the event into motion. Their outfits? Exact replicas of an equestrian ensemble designed by Karl Lagerfeld, first worn by a 7-year-old Silvia Venturini Fendi in 1967. Talk about full-circle fashion history.

With an event this monumental, it’s only right that a supercharged front row of global stars from film, television, and music took their seats, bringing their own Fendi flair to the occasion.

Bang Chan (バンチャン) of Stray Kids was recently announced as Fendi’s newest Global Ambassador, and he wasted no time proving why he’s the perfect fit by stepping out in a look from the brand’s Spring 2025 collection.

There’s something undeniably fresh about this outfit—it practically smells like springtime. The soft shades of ivory and cream feel light and effortless, and I love that he committed to the cold-shoulder styling of the polo neck top exactly as it appeared on the runway. It’s subtly daring, fashion-forward, and just the right amount of unexpected for someone like Bang Chan, who always knows how to balance edge with ease.

The sneakers? A brilliant choice. They ground the look with a cool, casual vibe that keeps everything in sync with his boy bander DNA. The whole ensemble walks that fine line between sporty and sophisticated, which feels very Bang Chan as a Fendi ambassador—effortlessly stylish, but still approachable.

But the black Fendi bag has such a contrast is stark, it’s almost jarring, against the softness of the rest of the outfit.. Maybe a lighter, more tonal option would’ve kept things feeling breezy and cohesive.

Carrie Bradshaw and Fendi are an inseparable duo, so naturally, Sarah Jessica Parker was in attendance, and naturally, she was carrying the iconic Fendi Baguette—this time as a crossbody bag. I love olive green ribbed Fendi dress, and kinda wish she hadn’t worn the coat, but the essence of her look shines through: peak SJP, and effortlessly put together.

Brazilian singer-songwriter Iza looked stunning in a Fendi Spring 2025 bandage dress, featuring a semi-sheer skirt that added an alluring touch. However, the placement of her Fendi bag didn’t quite work—I think it would have been more effective as a top-handle bag rather than a clutch.

Excuse me while I shed a few stylish tears over the lack of full-length photos of Matt Bomer at this event. But from what I can see, the actor looked as dapper as ever in a Fendi blue suit, paired with a navy polka dot shirt. The mix of colour and pattern? Chef’s kiss. There is no doubt in my mind that this look was a head-to-toe win.

My girl of the moment. Naomi Ackie has been serving Mickey 17 press tour magic, and she didn’t let up for Fendi’s big night. She rocked a denim Fendi dress, cinched in all the right places and styled with copper accessories that beautifully complemented the step-and-repeat. Was the buttoning a bit too high for my taste? Yes. My neck would never, but Naomi can do no wrong.

Hailee Steinfeld went full bombshell in a black Fendi LBD, playing with satin, sheer, and lace textures. It’s sultry, classic, and very much in line with her recent style choices. When Hailee goes for subtle sex appeal, she delivers.

I know some of you aren’t here for Ashley Park’s love of over-the-top fashion. But me? I live for it. Which is why this relatively toned-down Fendi Spring 2025 dress isn’t hitting quite as hard for me. Ashley thrives in drama, colour, and OTT embellishments, so while this look is undeniably chic (and lined), I miss the boldness she usually brings to the table.
