Fendi Pops Into NYC Soho for 25th Anniversary Baguette Celebration AOC Fashion

Fendi’s Soho Popup

Fendi [IG] has popped into New York City for a holiday celebration of the Winter Capsule 2022 - 25th Anniversary Baguette Collection. Located at 90 Prince Street in Soho, the shop will be open until December 23.

Created by Silvia Venturini Fendi in 1997, the baguette bag became a phenom attached to Sarah Jessica Parker and ‘Sex and the City’, who famously said “This is not a bag—it’s a Baguette.”

Fendi’s artistic director Kim Jones is known for his collaborations, and the LVMH family of brands were out in full force for September’s resort 2023 show. If the shade of blue looks like the Tiffany blue box, your eyes aren’t playing games.

In addition to providing color inspo, the LVMH Tiffany & Co brand was brought into the anniversary celebration to provide diamond baguettes for the Fendi baguettes. The constant cross-pollination of the LVMH brands always adds an extra bit of verve to these events.
