Due to the life on social media, we have come to the
time when the line “fake it till you make it” is indeed real, and though some
might never make it, trust they will still have to fake it, continue to, till
they are tired.
A couple of celebrities have been called out for wearing
or carrying a fake designer product, we don’t really have to mention names but
you might definitely remember some.
Here is a good way to know a real chanel bag and a
fake one
1. SMELL
AND FEEL: The real bag on the left is crafted from grained calfskin leather
while the fake bag on the right looks too glossy and when holding it, it is
incredibly stiff and does not feel like genuine leather. The fake bag also has
an acrylic smell to it, which is a common sign of a replica bag.
1. THE
“MADE IN”: On the genuine Chanel bag the letters of the 'MADE IN' stamp are
very crisp, and are perfectly spaced and specifically positioned on the leather
tab. This is compared to the fake bag where the lettering is smudged in places
and squashed together.
1. AUNTHENTICY
CARD: The serial number on the Authenticity Card should match that on the
hologram sticker inside the bag. Chanel use a distinctive typeface for the
serial numbers on their Authenticity Card, and on the card for the fake bag you
can see how the typeface of the number is very different to the card for the
real bag. The gold numbering on the fake authenticity card also gives off rainbow
sheen, whereas a genuine Chanel authenticity card wouldn't do this.
ZIPPER
1. On
the genuine Chanel bag, the engraving of CHANEL on the zipper pull is very
crisp and evenly spaced, compared to on the fake bag where the engraving is
very thick.
