Fake accent
amazingly helpful! thank you for your hard work! xoxo
Hi Winnie, your informative videos saved me from buying a very expensive super fake bag for my 30th birthday. Thank you very much. You are the best! 🙂
I disagree on markings on the cc closure there a lot of authentic Chanel bags this days that don’t have the markings on the cc closure lock and still marked as made in France without the mark on the cc also the foil mark inside the distance from the cc stitched logo is no longer like this they varies in placement and distance Chanel must have change that….partial inaccurate info can make u think the safest way to buy a bag is at the store it self…. or reputable luxury resale company I guess
Fake one where do u buy?
Thank you for this information . It can help a lot.
that small bag is so freaking ugly
I don’t understand rich people, but informative.
Now they know exactly what they need to improve…and it wasn’t….holy cow
whether its fake or the real one they’ll became ashes when fire consume them
Who fucking cares if it’s real or fake? I buy Chanel replica bags and nobody even notice. With that thousands of dollars I would use that money to travel, going for cruises and eat junk food. When you die, would you bring your Chanel bag into your casket? Luxury and material wealth doesn’t lasts. What lasts is your confidence and personality. Just saying bitch.
I bought a classic Chanel from a reputable EBay store in Japan. Everything about it seems real. Im 95% sure it’s real.
Some original vintage chanel bags have been to a bag restorer . The stitching might be different as they were trying to restore the bag.
Very good Video! Do you still have this super fake Vintage Bag? If yes, would you sell it, it would be interessed in it ? I think it’s always good to have a bag like this, so you can compaire it when you buy “authentic” bags and check if they are really authentic. I would appreciate it, it you would write me back.
Get that pencil away from the butter leather!
Every where all handbags is fake, they copied exactly. Unless you buy in real retail stores. Is can be true.
Hello there Winnie. I recently purchased a Chanel chevron denim boy bag. I would really like to authenticate it. Can you give me any tips to look for. I need it authenticated ASAP before my 10days are up to send it back. The Chanel boutiques don’t authenticate and really need help. Please
Okay so I’m freaking out right now. I bought a Chanel Classic Double Flap from a Neiman Marcus Chanel boutique. The CC hardware does not have the little hallmark stamp on it so I would expect it to be made in Italy. It is stating made in France. All other key points meet that it is authentic. Is this a fake then?

Thanks for the info. Cuz so many people have put their bags on sale on even a trustworthy app and I’ll never carry fake bag, ever. I prefer to buy my bags on the brand’s boutique.
Hi! Winnie
I saw a CC jumbo on Fashionphile and it have a Hallmark on CC logo but it’s made in Italy! Regarded from your explanation .. that Jumbo bag is Fake ?
Fashionphile is a Trusted site, Are they selling fake? I’m confused 🙁
Could you or anyone could help for more info?
with the super fakes so spot on, if i cant buy it at a chanel store, it doesn’t make sense to take the risk
hi, i have a jumbo lambskin version. which has the “made in Italy” just below the logo. and the logo is flat laid. do you mean all the jumbo bags are fake??
Hi winnie,
Thanks for the nice video and it’s really informative! I enjoyed watching your videos so much! You have mentioned in the video, the only bag that Chanel do machine stitch down the interlacing is with vintage jumbo flaps, how about modern jumbo flaps (those selling in store now)? If I see machine stitch on the interlace of styles other than jumbo flaps, I Can be sure that it is a fake bag, right? Correct me if I am wrong, thank you!
Gabrielle Chanel used fake gold fake pearls fake diamonds all the time , she couldn’t care less. She thought that style was not a matter of money , only fashion is a matter of money and Coco hated fashion . She said fashion was for stupid people, while style was for intelligent people . If you like the style of the fake bag then get the fake bag . Fake means nothing, it only means that you refuse , like Gabrielle, to spend a million on jewelry because you can appear just as stylish wearing fake jewelry ,
A bad imitation which does not respect the style of chanel is a stupid purchase but a super fake which respect every detail except the ones nobody is going to notice , is a terrific purchase especially if it didn’t cost you 1/100 of the real deal.
Fake doesn’t necessarily mean , lack of quality , it only means made by a different person . And if you knew how terrible the quality is in France this days in the little atelier , you might think twice before spending 4000 dollars on a bag .
Hi Winnie
you claimed that the hallmark is supposed to be “made in france” and some Authenticate site says that the hallmark means the hardware is gold plated
regarded it’s made in France or Italy. even some website claim to sell
authentic bags has the hallmark with “made in italy” so which is the
real answer? Please reply,Thx.
Winnie, my mom swears by the authenticity of her 2.55 lambskin Chanel flap bag, but according to your explanation, hers is not authentic: there’s a marking on the CC logo, but it says “made in italy”. The serial number is 3001393. That’s the only thing off from this bag. What do you think? Thanks
So what if it’s a fake.
The fake looks just as good. I wouldn’t care. Save me thousands ☺️
Just get to the point without the rambling
One sure-fire way not to get a fake – get the bag at a CHANEL boutique.
Will a 1996/1997 classic Chanel jumbo have a black or burgundy interior?
Hi can you do a video about identifying Chanel mini rectangular fur flap series?
Also the font on the box is a bit bolder than the authentic box.
My recently purchased classic medium flap in gold hardware doesn’t have the hallmark on the cc logo. It’s made in France. Is this a change for new bags? Thanks.
I’ve seen fake cards which are plastic and looking professional
Hi, you mentioned that a authentic Chanel chain stitching should not be machine stitch and it should be stitched inside not along the outside. I have recently purchased a vintage patent leather camellia flower mini which the chain stitching is on the outside. Would this rule applies as well, how do you authentic non classic seasonal Chanel bag ?
Would you do a video for Bottega Veneta please.
I bought a chanel bag from the store, and my leather con the chain has stiches. its a seasonal mini
Wait what?!! At first she said the Super Fake Lambskin Leather had a real sheen and high stitch count and called it authentic vintage! Now it’s fake?!! I’m soooooooo confused which one is REAL!! Did she switch bags?
This is not super fake sorry, this is only good fake
