Perfect for day-to-night dressing, this vintage Fendi Baguette in beige leather adds polish to any look. Take it to a chic brunch, gallery opening or dinner date; the chain strap sits neatly on the shoulder, while the compact silhouette keeps your essentials close. A refined finishing touch for neutral tailoring or a little black dress.
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: What are the measurements and how much does it hold? A: The bag measures approximately 30 × 18 × 5 cm. It comfortably fits a large smartphone, a small wallet, keys and a few slim essentials. It is not designed for A4 documents or laptops; pack light to maintain the shape.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody as well as on the shoulder? A: The chain strap has an approximate drop of 25 cm or 45 cm as listed. It sits neatly on the shoulder at the shorter drop; at the longer drop many wear it crossbody depending on height and preference. As this is a vintage piece, strap behaviour can vary slightly by year.
Q: What are the key design features of this bag? A: Beige leather with gold‑tone hardware, a single chain shoulder strap with a leather shoulder pad, brown fabric lining with one internal zipped pocket, and a magnetic flap closure with the FF logo.
Q: What is included with my purchase? A: Please refer to the product information on this page for everything included. For this specific item, no additional items are listed. If something such as a dust bag or card is not shown in the product information, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this Fendi Baguette? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and serial coding. Depending on production year, Fendi Baguette bags may feature a serial number on an interior tag, a hologram label or an embedded RFID/NFC chip. We are happy to share further details on request.
Q: Is this model made in Italy? A: Yes, this piece is labelled Made in Italy.
Q: How should I care for the beige leather and hardware? A: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use; avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, moisture, oils and hand sanitiser. Keep light leather away from dark denim or other fabrics prone to colour transfer. Store the bag lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag with the chain tucked inside to prevent imprints. Do not use harsh cleaners or metal polishes on the leather or hardware.
Q: Can I add or replace a strap? A: Many owners personalise their Baguette with an additional strap. If you wish to add one, ensure the hardware attaches securely and avoid overloading to minimise rubbing at the attachment points. A Fendi boutique can advise on suitable straps for your bag.
Q: Do you offer repairs, or can Fendi service this bag? A: We can recommend trusted restoration partners for cleaning and minor repairs. Fendi also offers assessment and repair services through its boutiques; eligibility, scope and turnaround depend on the item’s age and condition. Please contact us if you would like guidance.
Q: What does Very Good condition mean for this item? A: This piece shows light traces of use on the exterior and interior in line with its age. The hardware is shiny with surface scratches and some loss of colour on the main lock, consistent with our Very Good grading.
