Maria Grazia Chiuri's Fendi Homecoming Feted in Milan
Maria Grazia Chiuri's debut collection for Fendi blends pared-back neutrals, reworked bags, and fur, marking a new creative direction after Kim Jones's departure, at Milan Fashion Week.
- Making her Fendi runway debut on Wednesday, Maria Grazia Chiuri received a standing ovation at Milan Fashion Week, marking a homecoming to the house where she began her career.

- The fashion set is now focused on replaying the Fendi show at Fendi.com as Milan Fashion Week FW26 runs from February 24 to March 1 with 52 runway shows and 89 presentations, ahead of Demna's Gucci on Friday, February 27.
