hi, in this case i can tell by the colors of this dress.
the brown on the authentic is much darker.
the brown on the fake is more of a, sorry to say it like this, poop brown.
also the color of the bandage under the breast line is supposed to be more grayish pink metallic. now i never look only at the colors because that also can appear to be slightly different depending on in what light the dress was photographed and with what lens etc.
this dress also has messy stitching. you have to remember these are 1000+ dollar dresses. the stitching on the authentic looks very neat and clean. nothing like the stitching on this dress.

:) hope you get a refund.
normally when you inform the seller about the situation and ask to return the dress for a refund they will accept it. at least if they are honest.
remember it is possible that she bought it from someone else on ebay or another platform who told her it was authentic. who knows...

GOOD LUCK! :)




just compare

omg. I am going through the worst headache.
A seller posted pictures of an authentic Herve Leger on Ebay even though she is selling the fake version.

I contacted the seller shortly after winning and paying for the listing if she can indeed guarantee authenticity.

She tells me that she didn't realize that Herve Leger was faked. And, that her sister bought it from Amazon and to be rest assured.

Then, after winning, she posts a FAKE Herve Leger, that she declares authentic in her listing. I ask her about this...
Then she tells me that she is without a job and has a disabled child. And, asks if I can wait for a refund.
So, I feel pretty bad for her situation and agree. But, then I look at her completed listings and she's sold like 5 FAKES!!!

OMG. You have no idea the sad situations she described to me about her life! But, I feel pretty darn cheated as a lot of what she says don't coincide with each other AND she proceeded to send me pictures of carelabels that are CROPPED out so I can't see the dress it's actually attached to. I cannot believe that she didn't think I wouldn't notice.

It is really amazing how deceitful some people are. Most people would not be able to lie like that.

Needless to say I've opened a dispute with Paypal. No response or refund yet. BUt, if it is not resolved by Paypal, my credit card co. will be investigating!!!

Please note that the pictures have this as a size small and do not reflect the listing of an xs dress.

i already pointed it out as authentic but please note that the seller is using pictures of a different dress then she is selling as she is selling one in xs but the pictures are of a size small so i am only saying the dress is the pictures appears to be authentic not per se the dress she is selling
