Vintage Fendi Clothing?

Hello all!

So I've been trying to find some leads for weeks and I've come up with not much. I have this gorgeous cardigan with an unusual Fendi label. I have come across a few examples of this exact label, but unfortunately any info there may be about Fendi clothing gets swallowed up by bags and bags and bags!

The woman I got it from said it was late 70s and a couple of my designer friends agree, or say possibly early 80s. But it is ever so hard to find anything very conclusive about vintage Fendi garments.

The cardigan is a heavy knit and super well made. It feels like a piece that was made with great care. And the color! My photos don't do it justice.

So what do you think? Have you seen this label? Or any other vintage Fendi garments along these lines?

The Italians make such beautiful knits. I don't see '80s at all for this one so think you could be right about late '70s as the silhouette fits. It's a striking piece.

The label has some elements of an early '80s one in the LR, but we don't have this label so once it's dated accurately it would be lovely to be able to add it.
 
Thank you so much for your replies! I have finally found the right track, with a few runway photos to help. None of these is exactly the same as mine, but I think close enough to confirm that it's from the fall/winter 1989 collection. I'm overjoyed because, frankly, this mystery was beginning to bug me!
