If you firmly believe that details truly matter, then take at look at Fendi’s latest re-imagination of the Baguette Mini. This miniature masterpiece showcases the renowned Selleria workmanship, featuring 309 subtle tone-on-tone macro topstitches sewn entirely by hand.
Apparently, this process takes six times longer than if it were to be made using machines. The immaculate craftsmanship also takes advantage of the distinctive natural grain of Cuoio Romano leather that’s resistant to light scratches. Further evident of Fendi’s commitment to sustainable elegance, its creation utilises a metal-free tanning process.
Measuring 20 cm wide and 13 cm high, the Baguette Mini transitions easily from day to night. Carry it by hand via the detachable handle or transform it into a chic shoulder bag using the accompanying strap. The stylish miniature, available in Acid Yellow, Dove Grey, Light Blue and Red, brings timeless magic to every occasion.
Lift the FF magnetic clasp and the bag unfolds into a spacious, calfskin-lined compartment with a convenient internal pocket. And as with all leather goods that incorporate Selleria techniques, a silver plaque bears a serial number flanked by the words ‘Roma’ and ‘Italia’. A testament to craftsmanship and style, the exquisite Baguette Mini is part of Fendi’s Spring-Summer 2024 collection and retails at SGD3290.
