Origin
Silvia Venturini Fendi designed the Baguette in 1997 as a reaction to the big, minimalist bags of the decade. She wanted something small and tactile, made to be tucked under the arm like a French baguette, which is how it got its shape and its name.

Culture
Carrie Bradshaw's line in Sex and the City turned the bag into a must-have and helped make it, for many, the very first It bag.

Good to know
Not everyone at Fendi backed it at first; some thought it too small and too soft. It sold more than 100,000 in its debut year and proved them wrong.
