December may be best known to bag lovers as a time to get great deals on bags you’ve been stalking for months, but it’s also a great time to look toward the future, because pre-fall collections are dropping left and right. Today we’ve nabbed some photos of Fendi Pre-Fall 2018, and if you’re a fan of the brand’s signature mix of fine materials and idiosyncrasy, then you’ll want to check them out for sure.
The collection is themed around the Queen of Hearts, but not in a way that’s overtly romantic or girlish. Instead, hearts occasionally pop up as a decorative motif, and there’s a lot of red. Both of those things play well to Fendi’s signature quirky look, so if you’ve been a fan of the brand in recent seasons, you’ll likely dig what’s coming.
From a merchandise standpoint, the biggest thing to note is a redesigned 3Jours Bag, which now has a slightly softened structure (the flared gussets look more folded than seamed, as they did in the past), as well as a second pair of top handles borrowed from the By The Way Bag. My impression of those is that they’re mostly decorative, but one of the lookbook images does depict a model carrying the bag by those short straps. Check out those new bags and more below.
