FENDI Unveils ‘By The Way’ Bag for Fall: A Timeless Icon Reimagined

August 11, 2024

FENDI captures fashionable hearts with their reintroduction of its iconic 'By The Way' bag, available on August 22nd. First introduced in the Fall Winter 2014 collection, this Boston-style bag quickly became a staple on the runways and in the wardrobes of fashion enthusiasts. Fashion followers might recall seeing Cara Delevingne carrying the original design as she walked the FENDI catwalk that season, cementing the bag's status as a must-have accessory.

A Soft Revolution: 10th Anniversary Redesign

To celebrate the 'By The Way' bag's 10th anniversary, FENDI has reimagined this beloved accessory for the Fall Winter 2024 runway collection. The new iteration maintains the essence of its predecessor while embracing a more relaxed aesthetic tuned to today's quiet luxury trends. Key updates include an unstructured, soft silhouette that remains faithful to the original's timeless essence. Enhanced spacious interior compartments across all sizes improve both design and functionality, while a knotted leather zip pull adds a touch of artisanal flair. A detachable shoulder strap increases versatility, allowing for various wearing styles to suit any occasion.
