Now that I have two daughters, they can each have one.”

How To Spot An Authentic Fendi Baguette Bag

Fendi Logo:
- A Fendi Baguette bag has Fendi logo engraving on every part of its hardware.
- On the reverse side of the front FF logo buckle.
- On the side buckets that attach the shoulder strap to the bag.
- Fendi logo plate inside the bag.
- The inside wall pocket has FF logo zipper pull.
Serial Number:
The original Fendi bag comes with a serial number. You can find Fendi Serial numbers either in the side lining of the inner pocket or on a leather strip between the seams inside the bag.
Hologram sticker:
Since around 2004, Fendi introduced hologram sticker on their bags for authenticity purpose. Fendi bags produced prior to that don’t have hologram. Real hologram stickers are of high quality and they don’t fall off. Fake bags have fake hologram stickers on them but they tend to fall off easily. They also have different color refection and feel to them that can be spotted by a pair of trained eyes.
Wear it strap on or strap off?
