After hearing the news of Amy Winehouse‘s untimely death this weekend, Fendi released a statement remembering the singer.
The label has been a longtime fan of Winehouse. Back in 2008 she sang at the opening of their new Parisian boutique and creative director Karl Lagerfeld even dubbed Amy a style icon and musical genius.
The statement read:
“We met Amy in Paris, fresh from having won five Grammys. That night, everyone discovered that in addition to a genius voice Amy also had an exceptional and very British sense of humor. Having restyled the Fendi dress she was wearing that night, she said with a wink: ├óΓé¼╦£Forgive my ignorance, I don├óΓé¼Γäót know anything about fashion├óΓé¼┬ª.├óΓé¼Γäó We are very sad for the loss of such a unique talent that in many ways transcended music, fashion, and culture.”
So sad.
