burberryOne of the most frustrating things about purchasing designer labels is how rampant and prevalent replicas have become. If you’re seriously concerned with purchasing the real deal, make sure that you purchase from a vendor you trust, but more importantly, make sure you know how to spot a fake yourself. The first thing you’ll want to do is identify the specific bag that you’re looking to purchase and then do some research about common mistakes imitators make.

For example, Burberry purses are some of the most frequently replicated handbags around. Especially the classic check and nova check designs are frequently the target of counterfeiters. One of the biggest giveaways of a fake is if the pattern doesn’t align. Where sides and flaps meet, the pattern should almost perfectly line up and match. Visually, this creates a solid, unbroken line. The stitching should always be straight and impeccable. In a similar vein, the lettering should be uniformly spaced and of uniform height. If any of these things are askew, it’s a good chance you’re looking at a replica.

handbagsIt’s difficult for a lot of people to understand why others spend a significant amount of money on a handbag, but if you’ve ever purchased a designer label, it immediately begins to make sense. For one, the quality is miles ahead of other, non-designer labels. The expert stitching, fine fabrics, and innovative designs make these purses stand up to wear and tear better, but it makes them fashionably relevant for longer periods of time as well.

Part of the allure of owning an authentic designer handbag is that the purse will almost always be accompanied by a protective dustbag. These are usually drawstring bags that accompany the purse, and they are intended to house your purse while you’re not using it. In this way, the designer bag doesn’t get dirty or dusty while it’s waiting in your closet to be used. The protective bags themselves are usually made with extremely high quality materials and are usually detailed with the specific name of the designer.
