If there was any singular takeaway from Fendi’s bombshell held earlier this year, it’s that the Fendi Baguette bag looks good in every make imaginable, as I attempted to imply with the tortured Shakespeare reference above. There isn’t a textile, color, or trim that doesn’t fit the Baguette, and that includes PORTER’s signature technical nylon.
