Authentic Alternatives

This Michael Kors bag is trying to be a lot of things, but IMO esp the Marni trunk bag.

I actually like the MK better.

Yes I think the MK looks better in this case.

Somehow this is not a Bottega Veneta bag, but well... you could understand if there was confusion.

Dragon Diffusion, $229

I prefer the Dragon Diffusion one, maybe it's the color.

I do too. The color, and I’ve never liked the side loops on the BV one.

Ralph Lauren's RL50 bag resembles a birkin. Similar bags are the Tory Burch Lee Radziwill and maybe Mulberry zipped bayswater.

The price difference is not a lot, but the Lanvin bogey bag looks like the YSL Sac de Jour.

Zadig & Voltaire's Candide also look a bit birkinesque.

Well, this is too much of an exact copy to be okay. Clearly Hermes must have taken some action because it’s been discontinued.

If you want the look for less, there are many vintage Ferragamo gancini bags on the preloved market anywhere from $400-2000 depending on condition. I have a navy one I adore but don’t get much use of because my current life is so casual. In many ways, I even find the Ferragamo more classy and user-friendly than a Kelly.

i believe DeMellier Vancouver is a great alternative to Celine Box bag. As well Zanellato Postina to Mulberry Alexa. I will look for pics.
