FENDI’s Iconic Spy Bag Is Back — And Gabbriette & Amelia Gray Are Making It Feel Like a Cult Classic in the Making

The Spy Bag is back. You heard that right. The it-bag that defined an era (and once lived rent-free in every tabloid snap of the early aughts) just got the luxury reboot we didn’t know we needed. And trust FENDI to bring it back with cinematic precision.

Leading the charge? Gabbriette Bechtel and Amelia Gray, two rising style disruptors whose effortless cool sets the tone for the new era of FENDI’s iconic arm candy. Their campaign — shot by director and fashion whisperer Stevie Dance — doesn’t just show the bag. It casts it. Think moody lighting, barely-there dialogue, whispered glam, and bags that say everything without making a sound.

Let’s talk texture: the new Spy comes in mink, eel, astrakhan, and smooth leather — all elevated, all quietly opulent. The signature braided handle stays, but the new colourways? Think moody chocolate, dusty pinks, faded olive, and classic noir. It’s giving “rich aunt who ghosted the family for Capri,” and we’re obsessed.

More than a comeback, this is a strategic return. One that leans into craftsmanship, archives, and Gen Z’s taste for the nostalgic with edge. It’s not trying to be viral. It’s trying to be remembered.

The FENDI Spy Bag is no longer just Y2K’s favorite sidekick — it’s the fashion girl’s new power move.
