To be sure I need a pic of the stamp that says made in italy with serial numbers written in metallic writing, since I know this one should have a stamp. This bag was from fall 2005 and color is also her signature from the season; rose brown. Also she used heavy brass handles and the handle looks authetin on this. Just ask the seller for that pick to start your bid. (this retailed at $1,200) If everything comes out okay that would be a steal!!
 
Thank you so much! :) Nice to hear some information too, I knew nothing about this bag, I just saw it..and it was love on first sight :heart:
Seller has not replied yet..but let's wait and see what happens :)
 
Hi again :smile1: This bag that I asked about just above..I got it..it was so cheap I just had to buy it, even if the seller didn't have time to send me all pics.. So here are my own photos.. What do you think of the authenticity? :smile1:

The seller said she had used it twice..but it is a bit more beaten up than that I think.. It still is beautiful..and I don't know should I complain..a Stella McCartney (if it's auth.!) for 49 pounds (+16 ponds shipping)..

Is this really leather? On the reverted side it doesn't look like it..but otherwise it does look like leather :smile1: If it's leather, could I maybe try Meguiar's cleaning lotion on it, and then some polish with bee wax? It's not badly dirty..but a little fix could be useful :smile1:

(I know this is an authentication thread..but I thought I'd ask..there aren't so much activity here anyways)

Thank you so much in advance :heart:

Thank you again so much!!:smile1::smile1:

Thank you so much! :) I truly was lucky! This was so cheap! :) I googled some stuff about Stella's bags..apparently they are never leather! The seller had me confused, she probably did not know..the listing said leather. I don't mind though, I usually don't like fake materials, but it's kinda cool owning one "vegan" bag! :) Yay! I can't get over the fact that even if there's quite some wear showing..this cost only 49 pounds! :D
 
Anyone here familiar with Stella McCartney clothing? Like the labels etc. I am interesting in purchasing a dress from someone. They sent photos but I'm not sure if it's totally authentic...I don't want to be quick to judge but I need to be sure.

So if you can help me, please PM me, I would prefer it that way..(is that allowed?)

Thanks...
