Fendi is the fashion house founded in Rome in 1925 by Adele and Edoardo Fendi that makes Fendi sunglasses.
The company began as a fur and leather-goods shop in Rome. Over time, it developed into an international luxury fashion house producing clothing, handbags, shoes, accessories, and eyewear.
Fendi sunglasses carry the fashion house’s branding and are produced under licensing arrangements associated with the wider Fendi business. The brand is sometimes confused with other Italian luxury labels, especially Gucci, Prada, and Versace, all of which also sell sunglasses.
Fendi’s Roman origin is a useful identifying detail. Unlike Prada, which began in Milan, Fendi’s founding story is rooted in Rome and in the family business established by Adele and Edoardo Fendi in 1925.
