When a collection is designed by Karl Lagerfeld, you can always count on abundance. Minimalism has gone through periods of favor during Lagerfeld’s long career, and although he’s occasionally accommodated those seeking simplicity, his work is always detailed and heavily accessorized, which lends itself perfectly to both of the bag-heavy brands he currently helms.
First up this season is Fendi, and the brand’s bags felt intensely, gloriously spring-like. Between the mixed pastel palette and the little embroidered flowers that adorned some of the bags, Lagerfeld’s intention to embrace the traditional trappings of the season couldn’t have been clearer. Because Fendi always has a bit of an edge to balance out any overarching theme, though, many of the bags also had studs or chains to prevent them from feeling to saccharine-sweet. At times, the way those elements were combined felt as though meant to appeal directly to very cool Japanese girls, which is, by all measures, a good look.
The show also prominently featured the debut of a brand new chain-strap flap bag in at least two sizes, which is Fendi’s first entrance into the uber-popular category. You can check out it and all the other bags from the show below.

These have a very Hello Kitty vibe to them. The kind of bags a high school-aged teenager would carry… except what sort of teenager would have the $$$ to buy Fendi? I own several Fendi bags, and love their quality, but nothing here is remotely tempting me.
Bling, bling, my eyes hurt.
Yes, bags for rich little girls. In one season, out the next.
I’ll stick with classics thank you very much Karl.

So many cute bags!
Whether you like these or not, you’re style or not. These bags are created beautifully! The craftsmanship is evident in these images. Can’t imagine how these look like in real life, so enamored by the details.
I love a good embellished, embroidered bag. However, these are too much even for me. The floral bag charms are cool. Love the new straps, but only three bags caught my eye-numbers 2, 18, and 29.
I’m sure we will see them subdued once they hit the stores but i kinda like this over-embelishment here
Obsessed with this collection !!
Remind me of icing on cake!
YES — Hostess Cupcakes!!
Is it just me or does slide 27 look like it’s made of gingerbread?
These are beautiful – even if just for inspiration!

Reminds me of moschino! These may not be for everyone but they are a breath of fresh air to see. I feel like a lot of the new upcoming bags from many designers have been so full & plain.
Fendi and Moschino are my two faves, so I love that you made the comparison 🙂
Fendi nailed it this season, the clothes were flawless too. I’m definitely putting the painted floral micro peekaboo on preorder. I need it!!!!
More IS more! I love these, they are truly works of art. I would be scared to actually carry one though.
Cute! But not very practical for everyday use.
They’re hideous! I love them!
Love these, too bad they’re fendi.
How many straps does a bag need? Regardless, I’ll get my self a Strap You.
I love this collection! The bags are gorgeous and I see lot of designers following this trend from what I noticed in articles from The Beauty Insiders. I cannot wait until these come out!
Wow I love each one, they are all very detailed and pretty.
Given how embellished (over?) the bags are, a simpler strap would be better.
Love Fendi, but too much embellishment, takes away from the beauty of the bag.
I love the square bag with the scalloped edges. But for me, at my age, these bags are totally over embellished. Makes me wonder if my new bag, a “boring” navy tote from Celine, it already out of style! 😉
These bags make me so happy 🙂
The baby pink with the scarf woven throughout is awesome. I need this in my life.
I wonder when these will hit the stores, I absolutely must have the pink peony bag charm!!!!
Much, too much, too too much. Where is gone less is more? No way I would ever buy a bag like these. Awful.
