What do Rihanna, Sarah Jessica Parker, Leandra Medine, Jourdan Dunn and Rachel Feinstein have in common? They all just designed bags for Fendi. The Italian fashion house tapped the fivesome to put their spin on its 3Baguette bag, each of which will go up for auction to benefit various charities chosen by each of the celebrity designers.
Starting February 13, you’ll be able to see the bags on display when you visit the Fendi flagship for a month. That day, Karl Lagerfeld and co. will gather at Fendi’s new Madison Avenue store in New York City to fête the special edition pieces. Should you have the means to dish out dollars for any of these purses, you can sleep at night knowing your money went for a good cause. Proceeds from the bags will go to five celeb-backed charities like Rihanna’s Clara Lionel Foundation, which helps improve needy communities around the world on the education, arts, health and cultural fronts. Leandra’s will go to the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund, while Sarah’s goes to the Brain Trauma Foundation. For Jourdan, her money will go to the Sickle Cell Disease Association of America and Rachel’s will benefit the Naomi Berrie Diabetes Center at Columbia-Presbyterian Hospital. RiRi, Rachel and SJP also created additional micro-baguette versions.
The bags will be auctioned off from February 13 to March 13 at launch3baguetteauction.fendi.com. Get your bidding fingers ready.
