Fendi SS24 Brings In A-List Front Row For Milan Fashion Week
- By: Brianna Rose Hewitt
It doesn’t get more star-studded than this…
The city of Milan, filled with beautiful architecture, beautiful food, and now beautiful fashion and people as Fashion Week is in full force. Stars from all over the world have flown into the Italian city, and the Fendi show is a top contender for best A-list front row.
On Sept. 20, the front row was graced by supermodels Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss and Amber Valletta. Actresses Gwendoline Christie, Christina Ricci, Naomi Watts and Demi Moore sat right beside them.
Vogue’s TikTok captured a heartwarming video of the women applauding Fendi’s artistic director and designer Kim Jones as he walked the runway at the show’s conclusion. Moore, dressed in a red dress and green gloves is seen blowing kisses while the rest enthusiastically cheering and clapping. Other clips show Campbell hugging Jones after the show and a group picture with the designer.

The show might have taken place in Milan, but the vibes were completely Roman. Vogue’s TikTok reported that Jones wanted to speak “with a certain Roman freedom” and Harper’s Bazaar wrote that in the show’s notes Jones said “”there is an elegance in ease and not caring what anybody else thinks–that is real luxury. In this collection, I wanted to reflect that.”
The collection included a variety of layering and color blocking, creating outfits that looked like they were effortlessly put together by women who “dress for themselves.”
May of the front row spectators also took to social media to praise the show. Amber Valletta posted herself posing in a strapless blue ankle-length dress in front of the Fendi name with the caption, “A beautiful few days in Milan with my gal pal @demimoore celebrating our friend @mrkimjones and his gorgeous new collection for @fendi.”
Christina Ricci made us feel like we were actually there as the “Yellowjackets” actress posted about the show three times on Instagram. Her first post showed off her glamorous look as she wore a floor length silver dress accessorized with pastel blue heels and pastel yellow gloves.
Her second post showed off spectacular views of the show with the caption, “Some of my faves from the absolutely beautiful @fendi SS 23 show by @mrkimjones @silviaventurinifendi @delfinadelettrez. Swipe thru for the man himself” Her third and final post with a simple yet gorgeous selfie with front row peer Gwendoline Christie.
It makes sense Ricci would share so much from the show, appearing to have a great relationship with Kim Jones. Just a couple weeks ago on Sept. 11, the actress posted a photo of the two on Instagram to wish him a happy birthday.
Demi Moore also gave the show love, posting a reel with her stylist, as well as a carousel of photos and videos of arriving into the show and being in the front row. “Tonight at @fendi with my gorgeous pal @ambervalletta. So proud of you @mrkimjones,” the Ghost actress wrote.
Naomi Watts shared a similar post showing off her look and experience, captioning everything with “Loved the brilliant new @fendi show” by @mrkimjones.” She also shared a cute selfie with the legendary Linda Evangelista.
It seems the front row has a consensus, the SS24 Fendi Show was amazing, and it deserves all the love! Launch the slideshow below to see more pics of Fendi’s famous fans at show.
