Fake fashion is a whopping 450 billion dollar generating industry. Today, I went to greenhills and one thing that this shopping center is known for is the triple A signature bags that can be found there. Because of this whole LV bag craze, whenever i spot people carrying LV bags, my first reaction would be to question whether those are real or not.
Because the LV bag is the most popular signature bag, it has always been the target of knockoffs. The average consumer may easily be tricked into believing that a fake LV bag is the real one. Here’s how to tell whether you’re getting the real Louis :P
1.Check the price - LV monogram canvas bags cost 365 - 1985 USD
2.What’s in a name? - Normally the LVs are crooked. If you see the LV name in a crease or overlapped by a stitch, it’s not the real deal
3.The zipper pull and purse snaps will also be branded with an LV
4.The zipper pull should be brass and heavy
5.The seams should not be uneven
6.Check the material - LV monogram bags are made out of canvas but its handles are made out of leather. The handles are oxidized. The handles changes color and becomes a darker brown over time.
7.Check the location - LV has no other authorized reseller other than eluxury.com. It also doesn’t go on sale.
You can also call the LV hotline: 212-758-8877
