A couple months ago, I reviewed the bags from Fendi’s Resort 2016 lookbook and noted that many of the bags were hanging from thick, wide straps that were unlike those the brand generally includes with its bag. At the end of last week, we learned why: Women’s Wear Daily reports that they’re part of the new Fendi Strap You line, and they’re sold separately.
Fendi’s found a lot of success with product lines designed to make its bags more fun and personal, including monster bag charms, furry Karl Lagerfelds and miniaturized versions of its own bags. The straps are the newest addition to that lineup, and WWD reports that their prices will hover around $1,000 when they’re available this fall.
The Strap You collection will include leather, exotic and studded versions in its first run, and shoppers will also have the option of adding their initials to the strap in one of two available fonts.
Could you see yourself buying an extra-luxe strap for you Fendi bag? You can shop Fendi’s current bag and accessory lineup via Nordstrom.
