FENDI S.A.S. - Vintage anni '70/'80 - Messenger Trio in Tela Zucchino e Pelle - Rossa - Crossbody bag

FENDI

Splendid and exceptional vintage archive piece signed Fendi S.A.S. (the official designation of the maison used until the 1980s). This messenger bag is made in the iconic red jacquard canvas with a small-module Zucchino monogram.

The model’s distinctive feature is its extraordinary accordion-style internal organization: the front flap opens to reveal a red leather lining with a horizontal grain texture. The interior is structured in a "Trio" system composed of three independent black leather compartments, perfect for optimally organizing personal items. The rear compartment is equipped with a zip security pocket, enhanced by the original gold-tone metal zipper pull branded Fendi.
Portability: Extremely versatile, the item can be worn both on the shoulder and crossbody thanks to the adjustable strap with buckle.
