Default I Know This Is Fake But....

Hey Ladies!

I was on the bus this morning and spotted an intresting Fendi bag. I am not a fendi expert but it didint even look like a style that Fendi Made.


I found these images online(this is a replica), and was wondering if Fendi actually makes something similar to this style.

Please let me know, greatly appreciated.

I don't remember seeing one like that. Not all bags are available in all stores though. But personally.... I have never seen that one.

I'm pretty sure they don't. I have seen this figment of someone's imagination before, though.

Looks like a modified version of the spy. No top flap and braided handles replaced with chains.

Eww. Yeah it does look like a modified Spy. There are several Fendi bags available that have the leather/zucca fabric combo. If you have some time I recommend browsing the great pics in tPF.

Weren't these all over eBay some time ago? Well, I guess the counterfeit business has 'designers' too, someone who just comes up with designs and slaps some logos on. Go figure.

I see it's got the Selleria tag on the OUTSIDE, but it's not a Selleria tag inside. Sometimes these are pretty comical.

I think it looks alright as a design. The metal is a little brassy, not a big fan of the zippers on the side, but otherwise it would be alright. Every now and then, I see a fake where I go "Hmm.. Fendi should hire that designer! That's pretty clever".

What's up with the Fendi Selleria tag on the front... as if someone will miss all the "F"s everywhere else.

I don't buy fakes and despise them, but I have to say, I also like the design! I don't see what is butt ugly about the design? I'm sure if it was authentic, people would be snatching these up and would be singing a different tune. I am just commenting on the fact I like the design, I'm not condoning fakes.

They have a similar shape with strap, but I've only seen it in selleria.
