Bags of style: Italian fashion house provides creative platform

Miami – Expert artisans from Rome will be on hand to personally customise Fendi bags at Design Miami next week. A selection of designs from the archives of the Italian fashion house will be available to purchase at the F Factory, the multibrand retail project that is part of the Limited Edition Experiences programme in the Miami Design District.

As part of the event, graffiti artist Andre will create three needlepoint panels, which will then be incorporated into Fendi handbags by students at design school DASH. Mixing cutting-edge artists with traditional craftsmanship, Fendi promotes its brand beyond the doors of the boutique.
