Hey girls, so my mom just gave me her old Balenciaga Work in blue and I believe according to the code it was 2006 balenciaga work. After reading some threads about the authenticity, I checked several stuff it should be arite. It includes the tag where it says Balenciaga.Paris N•3156 Y 132110. But what interesting, on the reverse part, it only says 1669 (at the center) and "made in italy" in lower case letter. As I have read some of the threads, shouldn't it be longer or matches the "132110" or some cases said it should be "MADE IN ITALY" in the center with all upper case letter and 1669 at the bottom of it. The problem is, my mom lost the paper works.

Can someone help me and give me enlightenment on this:-) I would love to travel with this bag if this is an authentic "vintage" piece.

Love,
Jean

Are you asking about authenticity or the color? This bag is only for identifying the color/style/year of bags. If you want it authenticated, please go to the authenticate this balenciaga thread. There you will see what pictures you will need to post. If you want the year or color name, please post photos of the full bag and front and back of the tag. Thanks.
 
Hi :)

I'm posting a screenshot from my blog so apologies for the "pin the image" thing popping up. I recently bought this bag from VC and is preloved but I know the site is trusted here. It's been checked a couple of times as well and authenticated but I'd like to know the exact model/year? It doesn't have side zips.

It looks like a mini A4 papier. I'm not sure of the color since I'm not as familiar with this line and the colors, but it look black. The papier line started out in 2012 and looks black which has been made every season since then. Can you take a photo of the back of the tag on the inside? If it has a letter, I can give you the year.
