-SPECIAL- “FENDI” 90’s-00’s Peak lapel wool tuxedo tailored setup

“FENDI” 90’s-00’s peak lapel wool tuxedo tailored set-up

Founded in 1925 in Rome, FENDI has brought its own sensibility to traditional luxury through exceptional craftsmanship and innovative design. We are pleased to introduce this dignified piece that elevates the aesthetic of classic formalwear into modern tailoring.

By generously using high-quality pure new wool, and combining a sharply angled peak lapel on a neatly tailored black body with side stripe details running vertically down both sides of the slacks, this exquisite piece skillfully fuses the prestige of a traditional tuxedo with the refined sculptural beauty distinctive of Italian tailoring.

First and foremost, the standout feature is the large, three-dimensional peak lapels on the jacket front. The collar line sharply extending toward the shoulder creates a structured beauty at the chest area, lending a poised impression from the face around the upper body.

In particular, the lapel is made with a smooth, glossy fabric different from the body, creating a delicate contrast with the matte-textured wool. The result is a finish that, even with a black-unified design, still conveys a deep and elegant expression.

The front is a single-button design. Starting from the button placed around the waist, the line naturally widens toward the hem—beautifully balancing sharpness at the chest with the soft drape of the body.

Around the shoulders, you can see the structured lines typical of a tailored jacket. With the silhouette that naturally falls from there into the sleeves and the balance of a just-right jacket length that covers the hips, it achieves a beautiful presence that allows you to wear it with ease—while still being an elegant, dignified design.

And what we especially invite you to pay attention to in this exquisite piece is the side stripe detailing applied to both sides of the matching slacks. The line that extends straight from the waist to the hem beautifully enhances the leg silhouette in the vertical direction, adding even more poise to the entire set-up.

This side stripe is a historical motif used in traditional eveningwear and tuxedos. It symbolizes the glamour unique to formal attire and has played an important role in making the entire outfit look neat and composed.

Here, we elevate these classic details by incorporating them into calm black slacks, transforming them into a refined expression that naturally fits everyday tailoring. You can feel FENDI’s distinctive elegance and playful spirit.

Furthermore, because the center line beautifully emphasizes the vertical direction of the legs, together with the side stripe details, you can enjoy a clean, sophisticated impression even with a generous silhouette.

The material uses 100% pure new wool. Its supple feel and calm, refined texture are characteristic of quality wool, and you can fully appreciate the beautiful drape created by three-dimensional patternmaking.

As for the era, this item is positioned as FENDI uomo from the 1990s through the early 2000s. You can feel the classic aesthetic sensibility of men’s fashion of the time in the gold brand tag indicating it is made in Italy, the material composition combining pure new wool and rayon, and the tailored construction with a comfortable sense of ease.

FENDI launched a full-fledged men’s collection in 1990, expanding the deep understanding of Italian craftsmanship and materials it had cultivated up to that point into men’s wardrobes.

Within that history, there was a background of pursuing freedom of expression in fashion while also respecting the prestige inherent in formalwear—by incorporating unique decorative elements and a contemporary sensibility into the structure of traditional suits.

That same beauty sensibility is vividly reflected in this piece as well. While it adopts formalwear-derived details such as sharp peak lapels and side stripes, the generous silhouette allows it to be brought into everyday styling—where a special kind of charm truly resides.

For styling, you can enjoy a refined and elegant look with a simple shirt and dress shoes for a set-up, bringing out the poise that comes from formal wear.

It’s also wonderful to incorporate them as individual items—such as pairing a jacket with wide slacks or a long skirt, or matching slacks with side stripes with a shirt that falls elegantly or a simple cardigan.

In particular, the side stripe on the slacks becomes a natural accent even within a simple outfit; simply adding it to your everyday wardrobe will guide you to a styling that blends classical poise with a modern fashion sensibility.

While inheriting the beauty of traditional formalwear, this is an FENDI piece that allows you to enjoy fashion freely as part of everyday style—truly showcasing the brand’s distinctive tailoring appeal.

Please, take this opportunity.
