Designed by Silvia Venturini Fendi back in 1997, the rectangular top-handle design quickly became a defining piece of the 90s, dubbed the &#8216;Baguette&#8217; because it was designed to be tucked underneath the arm like a Parisian leaving the <em>boulangerie<\/em>. Many go so far as to argue that that the Baguette&#8217;s immediate, unparalleled cult appeal made it the first true &#8220;It&#8221; bag, a fact immortalized by <em>Sex and The City<\/em>, when Carrie Bradshaw adamantly declared &#8220;<em>This isn&#8217;t a bag, it&#8217;s a Baguette.&#8221;<\/em> Now, more than two decades on, and the Baguette continues to tantalize the world&#8217;s most stylish women, from Kate Moss to Zo\u00eb Kravitz and Gigi Hadid. Updated for the new generation in candy-colored hues like bubblegum pink and seafoam green, owning the Fendi Baguette is to own a piece of fashion history.<\/p>\n<p>This is Fendi&#8217;s new <a
