Perfect for summer weddings, gallery openings or city dinners, this vintage Fendi FF Baguette in white patent leather with FF‑embossed detail and gold‑tone hardware adds a polished touch to refined looks. Compact yet practical with a magnetic flap and an internal zipped pocket, it keeps essentials secure from reception to after‑party.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: Is this the classic Baguette size and what fits inside? A: Yes. This is the classic Baguette silhouette at approximately 26 × 15 × 6 cm, which typically fits a 6.7-inch smartphone, a long wallet, keys, lipstick and a slim sunglasses case. It is not intended for A4 documents or a full‑size tablet. Please refer to the measurements on this page to confirm fit for your items.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody as well as on the shoulder? A: This piece includes a detachable shoulder strap and detachable handle, so you can carry it by hand, on the shoulder, or as a higher crossbody depending on your height and preferred drop. The strap measurement for this item is listed under product information (approx. 45 cm).
Q: Are the handle and strap removable on this bag? A: Yes. Both the top handle and the shoulder strap are detachable, allowing you to switch between shoulder, hand‑carry and crossbody styles, or to swap in a different strap if you prefer.
Q: Does the magnetic flap closure affect credit or hotel key cards? A: The magnetic clasp is convenient and secure for daily use. Modern EMV chip cards are not affected by typical handbag magnets, but prolonged, close contact can demagnetise older magnetic‑stripe cards. As a precaution, keep cards a little away from the clasp area or store them in a cardholder inside the bag.
Q: How should I care for the white patent leather? A: Gently wipe the surface with a soft, slightly damp microfibre cloth and dry immediately. Avoid alcohol or solvent‑based cleaners which can cloud the glossy finish. Minimise contact with dark denim, printed materials and recently dyed fabrics to reduce dye transfer. Store the bag lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and heat, and avoid pressure against the patent surface to prevent imprints.
Q: Can white patent leather yellow over time? A: Light‑coloured patent leather can develop yellowing over the years due to oxidation, UV exposure, heat and humidity. You can slow this by storing the bag in a cool, dry place away from sunlight, keeping it clean and dry, and avoiding strong heat sources. If discolouration occurs, seek professional care rather than attempting harsh DIY treatments.
Q: Can I attach a longer strap for low crossbody wear? A: Yes. The bag’s hardware accepts clip‑on straps, so you can add a longer strap to achieve your preferred drop. Many clients use Fendi’s Strap You or a compatible clip‑on strap from their collection. Choose a length that suits your height for optimal crossbody comfort.
Q: What does the product information include with this item? A: For this specific piece, the product information lists a dust bag, booklet, a detachable shoulder strap and a detachable handle. If an item isn’t listed there, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously checked by our in‑house experts using multi‑point inspection of materials, stitching, hardware and brand markings appropriate to the era. Depending on year of manufacture, genuine Fendi pieces may feature interior codes or brand traceability elements. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional photos or details on request.
Q: When was the Fendi Baguette first introduced? A: The Baguette was introduced in 1997 by Silvia Venturini Fendi and has since become one of fashion’s most iconic shoulder bags, reissued in many materials and finishes, including embossed leather like this one.
