Wearing this Baguette last year would have been a sure way to bypass any line, as the decadent velvet and gold mesh indicates VIP.
The It Baguette
In 1997, Silvia Venturini Fendi was proposed with the task of creating a practical bag for women, and instead, she created the Fendi Baguette. In honor of the bag's 15th anniversary, the brand has teamed up with Rizzoli to create a tome of all things Baguette, portraying over 250 life-size bags. We at TIME picked our 15 favorites, one for each year. Enjoy. (You can find more on Style & Design here)
