Thanks robotdoll! I missed out on that clutch, but bought the pewter day instead. Thanks KDC for authenticating!

Hi Mim,

I don't believe that this is authentic, the tag font is wrong, there is a dash between Balenciaga and Paris instead of the . The numbers on the back of the tag look too big and too high up and the tassels are too wide. Both of my 04 Make-ups have really skinny, skinny tassels, about 2/16th of an inch wide.

Also the studs on the 04 were much flatter than the studs currently used (and pictured in your query). Also, upon closer inspection of the stud picture, has anyone seen those round circle indentations in the leather *around* the stud from the machine used to put them in the leather on an authentic Balenciaga???

Wait for the others to chime in, but this is my opinion!

I wish you well,

Bridget

the leather and hardware look good so far on this GH Day - just get a clear pic of the back of the tag and the rivets to be 100% sure before bidding to play it safe

They sell a cheaper range of leather goods, their logo is a double b. Their name is the same spelling as the balencaiga that we all love but the logo is totally different. I hope this makes sense basically it is not THE balenciaga!!

My mistake as well... I guess I must lay off authenticating while breastfeeding. I am soooo sorry!

Yep, I second this: older bags have this older version of the Lempo zipper!
