HOW TO SPOT A FAKE CHANEL BAG

Looking for a Chanel handbag? Here's how to tell if that statement purse is a genuine Chanel bag or an impressive imitation!

The first thing to pay attention to is the leather. The authentic leather in Chanel bags is either lambskin or caviar skin.

1. LEATHER

An authentic Chanel flap bag features a lining that is taut, or tightly fitted.

2. LINING

An authentic bag from Chanel has a high stitch count so the quilting does not puff.

3. STITCH COUNT

The quilting pattern should be perfectly aligned when the flap is closed or when you check the outer pocket.

4. QUILTING

In real Chanel purses, the right C overlaps the left C at the top of the logo.

5. CC LOCK

If the chain strap is heavy, with the gold or silver smooth and without the slightest bit of scratch or dents, then it is authentic.

6. CHAIN
