Hi I had a question regarding the Prada tessuto nylon bags that have become on demand as of lately. I’ve read that every authentic Prada bag should always have a small white tag with a production number on the inside. Does this rule apply to this style of bag as well? My concern is I had purchased a bag about a year ago and the seller had it authenticated and it came back real. But there is no tag on the inside and the zipper does not have any brand name on the underside such as Lampo, etc. I’d just like to know what your expertise is please! Thank you

We don't give out our hard earned info here sorry. However I will say that the little white tag has sweet f a to do with authenticity.

Hi! Thank you for replying back to me. I’m just a little confused as to what you mean by sweet “f a” and also if I were to post photos of the bag would you be able to authenticate it please? I’d really appreciate any feedback.

Comments: Hi I have attached photos from the original seller. The seller had it authenticated and it came back authentic but the two things that made me hesitant were the underside of the zipper and the missing white tag with the production number. I saw other sellers with similar bags and packaging like mine. I appreciate any feedback. Thank you so much again!

Sweet fa is a euphemism for a very crude expression in very crude language. It means - nothing at all, zip, or zero, or sweet fanny adams, or any one of a thousand ways to express nil.
As to the bag, it is the most often counterfeited Prada style. There are literally billions of them around and they are impossible to authenticate just from photos. Unfortunately the zip and the white tag aren't indicative of either authenticity or non authenticity either.

I would like to hear from @Bratty1919 and @missfiggy on this, but I'm calling it fake with little hesitation (and not for any of the reasons you mention).
