ROME — On July 4th, luxury house Fendi will stage a couture runway show, in homage to its late creative director Karl Lagerfeld. DM Fashion Book reported with sadness that legendary fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld died at 85 in Paris on Tuesday February 19 (see it here).

Bernard Arnault, chairman and chief executive officer of parent company LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton, first talked of the show at the group’s annual general assembly in Paris recently.

A Fendi spokeswoman explained that the collection will be exhibited in Rome following the show. Details about the location and the time hasn’t be released at the time of this post.

No communication has been made yet as to Lagerfeld’s successor at Fendi. The collection to be shown in Rome will be designed by the brand’s creative studio with Silvia Venturini Fendi, said the spokeswoman.
