Q: Can I wear it crossbody?
A: This vintage design was created as a shoulder bag. While you may attach a longer third‑party strap to the existing hardware for crossbody wear, the original strap is short and intended for shoulder use. Only the items listed in the product information are included with this listing.

Q: How secure is the closure?
A: It features a front flap with a magnetic clasp that keeps the main compartment closed during everyday use. We recommend placing very small or valuable items in the internal pocket for added security.

Q: What is Fendi’s Zucca canvas and how durable is it?
A: Zucca refers to Fendi’s iconic FF monogram canvas, produced over the years in both woven jacquard and coated variations. It is generally hard‑wearing for daily use, but like any fabric it is not waterproof and should be kept away from heavy rain, oils, and dyes that may transfer.

Q: How should I care for the canvas and leather trims?
A: Wipe the canvas gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth; avoid harsh chemicals or alcohol‑based cleaners. Keep leather trims conditioned sparingly with a quality leather cream, avoid prolonged sunlight and heat, and store the bag loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help maintain its shape.

Q: How do you authenticate this vintage Fendi bag?
A: Every piece at A Retro Tale undergoes multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware engravings, logos, interior labels, and era‑appropriate markers. Depending on production period, authentic Fendi bags may show a serial number on a tag or lining, and later models include a hologram (from around 2004) or RFID fabric tag (from around 2010). We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.

Q: What comes with this listing?
A: Everything included is detailed under product information on this page. This specific piece is offered without additional items unless explicitly stated there.

Q: When was the Mamma Baguette introduced?
A: The Mamma Baguette debuted in the late 1990s as a larger, roomier interpretation of the 1997 Fendi Baguette. It retains the under‑the‑arm silhouette and signature FF‑clasp styling that made the line iconic.
