Hi there Aprilbunny28,
Sorry, but these both look fake to me The interior tag on the black one should be placed directly onto the lining (not onto a piece of leather then onto the lining). The stud spacing on the white one is off. And both should have a key attached to the front of the handle (for the lock on the side pocket).

I will be going to my Versace boutique this weekend to check out the new line, so far I've only seen it online but it looks divine!!!

Okay, please ask for a picture of the front of the hang tag, the interior Versace plate, and the zipper pull. Also, if you can find out where / when it was purchased that will help a lot. Please post pics and info when you get it and I'll be happy to take a closer look!

Hi there Shopoholigirl,
There are a few things I don't like about this. To be honest, I am not familiar with this particular style (and I am familiar with most styles released here in the last two years). So, since the tag is still attached I am going to assume this is a newer style.
1. That hangtag is usually not attached to the bag
2. The interior looks unlined
3. The interior tag should be a stamped metal plate (not embossed leather)

I hope this helps!

Yes, I see... the first pic was sideways. I was in the Versace boutique last weekend, and all the new styles had four tiny flat head looking screws on each corner of the interior tag. Also, the coco and python bags had metal interior tags (not croco / python) embossed tags. HTH!

Hi,
Can you please help me authenticate this one?
I bought it on Ebay Germany for 200 USD.
Everything looks ok, thich great leather, perfect stitches, great shape. I only have one doubt - it has no tag inside near the zipper. It could be because this is an older bag, however I want to check with you.
I found smth similar - not very - on ebay.com from a trusted seller http://cgi.ebay.com/GIANNI-VERSACE-L...QQcmdZViewItem

Thank you

Thank you
I'm so sorry, but this is a fake The Medusa logo is completely wrong... it looks like a bad imitation of a native American wearing a headdress. The real logo looks more like a goddess. Check out the logo on Versace.com. I suggest you try to get your money back ASAP!

Oh, and the backpack that you linked is a terrible fake too! Again, I'm so sorry.
