You might recall the Sex and the City episode in which Carrie Bradshaw gets robbed by Houston Street.
When asked to hand over her purple sequin Fendi purse, she proclaims, “It’s a baguette!” That event was the impetus for the silhouette’s popularity, which often includes a shoulder-length strap, a rectangular body, and a fold-over or zip closure.
It sort-of became the first “it” bag. Carrie’s Fendi baguette was seen again in the show’s sequel And Just Like That…
