Fendi Caffe
160 NE 40th St., Miamifendi.com
Fendi has announced the return of its iconic pop-up cafe in the heart of Miami's Design District. Through Sunday, May 1, the temporary shop is taking over OTL Restaurant, located across the street from the Fendi Boutique, in honor of the brand's latest launch. The new concept for the Fendi Caffe draws creative cues from the brand's women’s spring/summer 2022 collection and its inspiration from the figurative drawings of 1970s fashion illustrator Antonio Lopez. The artist's work has been revived for the pop-up with a bold sunset graphic in hues of red, orange, and yellow and illustrations of Lopez Girls in 3D billboard sculptures. The menu includes a fusion of local and Italian breakfast and lunch items, as well as beverages. Offerings like the "FF" logo cappuccino — served in porcelain cups decorated with Fendi's signature striped motif — and the "FF" logo-printed toast and paninis or pastries and baked good served in Fendi packaging make for Instagrammable moments. 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday.
