A Visit To Fendi’s House

Venturini Fendi, who is Fendi’s creative director of accessories lives in this 8 bedroom house known as Casa Madonna on an Italian Island called Ponza. It was reportedly purchased by her mother, Anna, who is one of the five famed Fendi sisters. Anna bought three homes as gifts for each of her daughters over 10 years ago with each house designed to fit each daughter’s character. Venturini Fendi told Harpers Bazaar that she attended her first fashion show while she was still in her mother’s womb, and has baby pictures with Karl Lagerfeld. She didn’t begin working at the family’s company until she turned 18. In 1987, she was named creative director of Fendissime, and she moved to the main label in 1994. Darn, we’d give anything to vacation in this house!
