History: I bought this on ebay for my mom bc she likes bags with front pockets. However, I've been restoring it. I brushed out the lining bc it was powdery. I tried to use the second strap notch in order to lengthen the strap, and it cracked. I decided to see if there was another like it, to see if it's a common issue, and how to fix it. However, I cannot find anything like it-anywhere. Now I'm wondering if it's a fake. It seems real to me. It even had a staple on the lining, as if someone tried to staple in the paper Gucci tag after it fell off. Help would be greatly appreciated!
As one woman's opinion...(it appears that one needs to be certified authenticator on this site ;)) anyhow, as someone who owns designer bags and have some vintage pieces pass on to me. unfortunately, crumbeling of the lining is common with vintage bags,wether its linen or leather. The bag appears authentic, the logo charm alone is the piece that's worth keeping this bag for. Those are from 50's and 60's, at least that's what I've learned from fashion history books. Take it to a shoe repair, they may be able to fix the strap. If you can, look for a repair shop in the elite neighborhood. They will have experience and more knowledge.

Hello again,
I had asked to authenticate a bag but I just saw the link no longer works! The bag is now in my possession but I can still return it.
I took the photos, then posted them from my iPad, which is why they look framed and funny.
I would appreciate if someone could authentiate it as I can still return it:

Item Name (if you know it): Gucci Dionysus Shoulder Bag Blooms
Seller: Melouie on ebay
Who took the pictures: These pictures are mine
History of the bag: I purchased via consignment
Comments: Please let me know if authenticView attachment 3624876 View attachment 3624876 View attachment 3624877 View attachment 3624879 View attachment 3624880 View attachment 3624881 View attachment 3624883 View attachment 3624888 View attachment 3624889 View attachment 3624890 View attachment 3624886 View attachment 3624883 View attachment 3624881
Is that tag squared at the edges? I'm no expert, but I've read that it shouldn't be a hard corner. Have you read any authentication tutorials?
