About the Baguette

Designed by Silvia Venturini Fendi in 1997 and named for its slim, under-the-arm silhouette, the Baguette became one of the most recognized 'it bags' of the late 1990s after appearing throughout Sex and the City. Fendi relaunched the style in 2019.

What affects this bag's resale value

  • Standard leather versions from the current relaunch hold roughly 72% of retail — vintage 1997-2004 originals in rare fabrics or embellishment trade at a significant premium instead
  • Beaded, embellished, or limited-collaboration Baguettes can resell for multiples of a standard leather version
  • General Fendi resale demand has softened recently, which affects standard current-production pieces more than sought-after vintage examples

Frequently asked questions

Is the Fendi Baguette a good investment?
It depends heavily on which version — vintage 1997-2004 Baguettes in rare materials have appreciated significantly, while standard current-production leather Baguettes track closer to typical designer-bag depreciation.

Fendi (est. 1925) — Best known for the Baguette, one of the most collected 'It bags' in fashion history — vintage originals have appreciated sharply even as resale demand for current-production pieces has cooled recently.

This is an estimated market value, not a formal appraisal. The actual value of any individual bag depends on its condition, provenance, and what a specific buyer is willing to pay. Values shown are modeled from aggregated resale market data and update periodically.
