View attachment 2293215Hello everyone. I am looking to get a Stella McCartney handbag, that I picked up, authenticated. This bag is extremely large and was advertised as a duffle bag. It is heavy and seems to be well made. It is a bluish color and the material feels solid. The lining is a heavy canvas. Here are my concerns: no serial numbers that I can find, plain canvas lining, interior zipper pull, and I have not found another one like it. Please let me know what you think or if you need any additional information. Thank you!

I wish I could help but I"m not familiar with this bag at all.
 
Ok, thank you. I am not sure what to do with it. I have no idea if it is real. Anyone else have any clue?

I don't think it's authentic as it does not have inside linning and code. As far as I know all Stella Mccartney bags should have code(at least untill 2011)....
Can you post a pic of the interior pocket taken outside?
 
Can someone tell me if this is real or fake? Or do you guys need more images?
I am really doubting it becasue she doesn't has a receipt but the bag looks fine to me.

Starting with the dustbag, Stella Mccartney dustbags are all made of STRONG ,thick, waxed cotton with a purple strong string ,in the T (for Stella) there are 9 dots and the dots are purple colour, the fake dustbag was made of flimsy cheap cotton with white strings ,had a 100% organic cotton logo in the corner and the T ( of Stella) had 7 dots and were brown colour.
The stitch was the biggest indicator as it was larger and not perfect as the real ones, the real Stella's stitches are very tight and straight ,the Stella Mccartney printed inside the bag should be clear dots ,not smudge ,the purse that comes attached to the bag's metal inside must be perfectly stitched,not shabby like the phony ones as you can see in the picture and even the little ring that holds the purse should be thick not thin and fragile. Although Stella Mccartney bags are synthetic, they should be heavy ,firm and strong, the quality is as good as leather, it should be sturdy, not thin like cheap plastic and shouldn't be light.The patent bags should be strong and even rubbing against the wall shouldn't make the material deteriorate
Actually, the dustbags that come with most of the authentic bags have white drawstrings, not purple thick ones, as mentioned by Mamamaxim above. Also, I have a beige colored SM bag that I purchased at Bergdorfs and the fabric is a bit lighter weight and rather flimsy/slouchy compared to other SM bags.
