Hi,
Any help authenticating this bag would be much appreciated!
Item Name: Prada perforated bag
Listing number: found via fb group
Seller ID: private

I’be googled it but can’t find this same exact model, but I can see tote bags and some other bags (bowler) have this same perforated material.
Thanks again!

Fake. Steer clear of Facebook groups selling so-called designer items. Easily 99.9999999999999999999999% of what's there is fake.

Inadequate photos and the authentication request form needs to be filled out completely.

Vintage isn't always my forte, so hang on for Bratty1919 to chime in, but it looks authentic to me. I'm guessing early 1990's or so. Also, Prada rarely names their bags.

OK, that was weird. Had a bizarre message pop up on the screen when I clicked "reply" and then my post showed up twice. Something about a 505 error. Vlad?

Thanks @Bratty1919! I don't usually venture a guess on these vintage bags, but I was pretty sure it was authentic.

NOTE: The PurseForum requests that only members with an extensive knowledge of the brand and authenticating who have over 500 posts participate as authenticators in this AT thread. The moderators reserve the right to remove authentications that do not meet these requirements.

Please follow these rules:

1. Before you submit a request for authentication, please search this thread to make sure that the item has not previously been authenticated. Searches can be done via the seller name or by auction/listing number - add * to the beginning and end of the number (eg. *12345678*).

2. Help our authenticators by using the following format:

Item Name:
Listing number:
Seller ID:
Link:
Comments:

Authenticators are not required to answer every request, and it is their right to ignore a request that is not in the proper format or for any reason they choose.

3. All requests must have clear photos (either in listing and/or provided by member requesting the authentication). This will help expedite authentications. Please ask the seller/use the macro setting on your digi (little flower). If you cannot see the details yourself, neither can we. Please provide photos taken with an actual camera. Cell phone pictures rarely provide good details.

Pics needed:

- Front view of bag
- Zipper & its end
- Hardware
- Base of the handles
- Both sides of all cards
- Large clear interior photos especially of the linings - one with flash and one without
- Closeups of any luggage labels - both sides
- Closeups of main logos
- Closeups of interior labels/logos

4. Do NOT PM an authenticator or moderator to request authentication. Any and all such requests must be posted in this thread.

5. Should one of your items be questioned in this thread, you are welcome to provide additional pictures or materials supporting its authenticity.

6. Do NOT handle your disputes with other members in this thread. Take your differences to Private Message or just use the REPORT function to alert the Mods, and let them handle it from there. In the meantime, just ignore the poster until a Mod can intervene. Failure to do so can result in banning. Always be respectful when you post and treat others as you expect to be treated. This is an open thread and everyone is welcome to participate.
