The British designer has made a significant contribution to Fendi’s creative legacy, “seamlessly integrating his modern and cross-cultural aesthetics with Fendi’s historical heritage,” fashion group LVMH said.

Kim Jones is leaving his post at Fendi, where he has led womenswear and couture design for the previous four years, in an effort to “concentrate fully” on his position as menswear director at Dior, according to Business of Fashion. Fendi stated that it would announce a new creative director “in due time.”

The exhibition will include a self-portrait by Grant, in which he’s wearing a turban; a painting of the economist John Maynard Keynes from 1917, sitting in the Charleston garden wearing an Omega Workshops cap, and a painting by Bell depicting Grant’s aunt, Lady Jane Strachey, in 1923.

On Friday, LVMH confirmed that Kim Jones would be stepping down from his post as women’s wear designer at Fendi after four years, but that he would remain as artistic director of Dior men’s wear, a job he has held since 2018.

The British designer is parting ways with the Roman house after an eventful four-year collaboration. He continues as artistic director of men's collections at Dior.

In a statement, Bernard Arnault, chairman and CEO of LVMH said: “Kim Jones is a highly talented designer who has brought his unique and multicultural vision to Fendi over the past four years. I would like to thank him for his contribution and look forward to continuing to witness his creativity at Dior Men’s.
