The Fashion Landscape
Lagerfeld and the FF

Karl Lagerfeld joined Fendi in 1965 and designed the double-F logo, often read as 'Fun Fur'. The Zucca print, which repeats it on a large scale, followed in 1967.

The Wider Culture
A Roman House

Fendi was founded in Rome in 1925 by Adele and Edoardo Fendi. By the 1980s their daughters ran the house, with Lagerfeld designing furs and ready-to-wear.

Reading the Object
Print and Tag

The Zucca print gives the cover its pattern, and the gold-tone tag marks the front. One of the letter tabs inside is missing.

Pattern on the cover, gold at the front.
