Authenticate This PRADA

It looks like maybe white shoe paint may have been used on it. Maybe there is a safe product to remove this? There used to be a shoe dye sold widely here called Meltonian. Was it sold in your home country? Or something similar perhaps? Grasping at straws a bit...
Never heard of this brand, but yeah, I think it might be shoe dye or something similar. :sad:
I'm currently googling dye removing tips, hopefully, I'll be able to bring some of this bag's original beauty back.

I'm not sure if she's around tPF much these days, but @docride is a magician when it comes to leather restoration. She helped me restore a 40 year old Hermes bag several years ago. The forum has gotten so big over the years and I mostly just pop into the Prada forum, but at one time Doc had an entire sub-forum/pinned thread full of leather restoration tips. Maybe in the Hermes sub-forum? You could always PM her too. ;)

Thank you, Prada Psycho, I'll check it out! :smile:

Comments: Hi there! So I've been looking around for a Prada tote and found an Etiquette one from Vestiaire Collective. I bought the bag too quickly from excitement (yikes), and now after doing more research online - I'm just so confused with the logo inside the bag. In the seller's photo, their bag has "Milano" underneath the Prada logo. However, now I'm just seeing a mix online of the inside of various bags under the Etiquette line with and without "Milano" inside. Would appreciate it so greatly if anyone can help me authenticate this bag please. Apologies as my order is still being shipped to VC so the photos are lacking. Please put me out of my misery. Many thanks!

Comments: Dear authenticators, I was just curious about this bag, I've never seen it in this color before. I know the pictures aren't great, do you think you can still make something out of it? Thank you!


I've seen plenty of these in this colour. Unfortunately the essential aspects that I need to see are all blurred.
 
Hello everyone! I am new to this process so please be kind and bear with me as I attempt to put all the pics in this post that are necessary.

This is a PRADA Tessuto Bow Tote bag. It was gifted to me late last year. I do like this bag and from the research I’ve done, it’s origins are from the 2007-2008 line. Please let me know if you’re able to authenticate. It’s such a cute bag!
