Can anyone tell me if this book clutch is authentic? I'm getting married next summer and we're doing art deco with pale pink and burgundy AND this is one of my favorite authors so it's basically perfect! I'm just afraid it's not real!

Hi, there. I owned three of the Emma book clutches, 1 that definitely was fake and 1 for sure authentic. And one that has a big question mark, but to my knowledge is real based on the comparison between it and the authentic one.

The lining of this book clutch should be black and have a small golden spade logo (without kate spade monogram). I would ask for pictures. on the inside.

Then I would ask if the inside is stiff or not, and that you haven't decided if stiffness of the lining is something you want even though it is probably better than it being soft (because it holds better and easier to clean instead of stain). Ask for pictures and how many card slots there is. There should be 6 or 12. The fake emma clutch I got held three.

In truth, if the lining is super stiff. It's is probably a fake.

Hi! New here. Found this bag at a thrift store and liked the stripes. Is there any chance this is authentic? Absolutely no tags of any kind on the inside anywhere.

Adding a photo of the feet. They are short with a rounded button insert. The zipper inside the Purse is just a nylon zipper with a regular zipper pull.

Counterfeit. The Multi-stripe never came in a Sam. It came in a tote and had s few matching accessories. The fabric was a sateen; not a canvas like yours. Also, it had Brown canvas handles and a tan cotton interior. This one can only be sold by removing The fake ksny label. The thrift store committed a crime selling you a counterfeit bag. You should take it back and demand they refund your money. Show them this... http://ihatecounterfeitbags.info/rainbowbags

Thank you for all the educational info as well as your time looking at this bag! I will definitely take this back to the thrift shop, and look for an authentic stripe bag elsewhere. I had no intention of selling this bag. It was bought to keep. I buy and sell vintage Coach bags, and am diligent about authenticity.

I have learned a lot about Kate Spade following this thread. Thanks for being here.

It lacks a country of origin tag and a KS label on the inner pocket, which I've heard are bad signs.

Look again at the image you posted above. As shown below, it does show as having been made in China.
