British actor Nicholas Galitzine has been named as Fendi’s inaugural global menswear ambassador. Having first attended the brand’s Baguette 25th Anniversary show in New York last September and later sitting front row at FW23 in Milan, Galitzine is now the face of Fendi’s menswear. Having previously starred in Netflix’s Purple Hearts and Cinderella, his upcoming roles include starring opposite Anne Hathaway in The Idea of You and the hotly-anticipated film adaptation of Casey McQuiston’s novel Red, White, & Royal Blue.

Galitzine fronts the Italian house’s first-ever worldwide men’s campaign, shot by renowned artist Nico Vascellari. Speaking to us, Galitzine said of the appointment; “The campaign was a lot of fun. I came straight from the show where disco was the theme, and that vibe continued into the shoot. Working with Silvia Venturini Fendi and the incredible team – we set out to mirror the effortless cool and elegance of the clothes in the campaign.”
