Ensure that the designer’s logo is intact before you buy it. Most designers have their logos featured prominently on the outside of their bags but if not, it will be on the inside. The pattern on the fabric or leather should be consistent over the handbag.
Many designers, like Louis Vuitton and Coach, have a distinctive pattern on all of their bags. Make sure the bag you’re looking at matches the designer’s style exactly.
The stitching should be consistent. Particularly on Chanel and other quilted-style bags, there should be no flaws. Hardware should be firm and strong, not bendable. Typically, it’s brass and should not have any discolorations if it’s a new bag.
The overall materials used to make the bag should be the best quality and look flawless. Even a used bag, particularly if it’s leather, should still be in good shape as high quality materials will wear more gently. The beauty of buying bags in this pricing echelon is that you can expect nothing less than the best. Anything that looks even remotely cheap probably is.
Finally, become familiar with the kind of luxury handbag you want before you buy it. If you don’t intend to purchase directly from the designer, visit their boutique anyway to familiarize yourself with every detail of the bag. This will help to ensure that when you do make your purchase you’ll be getting the real thing and that the bag you fell in love with will be 100% real–and 100% yours.
