I have a Dior handbag that I want to sell, but I do not know if it is an authentic bag. How can I check to make sure that it is not a knockoff? What types of things should I be looking for? I do not want to sell it as authentic if it is not. I know nothing about this. HELP!!

Hi there!

Can you post some pictures of this bag (inside and outside), please? Different models have different details that show whether or not they are authentic.

I have some photos of it but they are too large to upload. I will try to work on the sizing and upload them if I am able to make them smaller.

I have resized the pictures and hopefully they will be uploaded with this message.

Hi there!

Thank you for the pictures! They're very small and it's hard to see the actual details, but at the moment the bag looks suspicious because there is no stitching around the edge of the interior leather flap that has the Christian Dior PARIS logo (this stitching should be present in all models of the Latest Blonde line because of the time this line was introduced). Also, the Dior leather plaque on the front flap of the bag seems to be missing some top-stitch details.

Thank you. I will look into this a bit further.

Hi there!

Sorry but these sunglasses are fake

. The font of the Dior logo is inaccurate, and Dior never made this style. Also, the price is WAY too good to be true if these glasses were real.

Thought so. TY

Even from the faraway picture of the Dior Flight denim bag I can tell that this is fake. The bag looks a bit awkward in terms of its arrangement of logos (the logos look very big) and the D buckle (which seems to hang too low on the bag). Was this model ever made by Dior anyway?
