Is there any way to know when bbags with leather tags are from? (which don't have the metal tag with the stamped letter that shows which season it's from)
i bought a black twiggy in February 2005. Is there any way for me to know when it's from? it could be a/w 2004 or s/s 2005...
 
byMiMi is right...I've only seen them with leather tags. I don't think there's a way to differentiate the years from the serial numbers though. I've only heard of Hermes doing that (although I could be wrong)
 
The only way to differentiate a twiggy is to look on the white authenticity card. There will be a letter that accompanies the serial number. If it was SS 05, then it will be a letter A. If it was FW 05, then it will be a letter Z.

The letters correspond to different years.

C spring/summer '04 2004 1 --- B fall/winter '04 2004 3
A spring/summer '05 2005 1 ---Z fall/winter '05 2005 3
Y spring/summer '06 2006 1

^ winona, the letter codes are only present on the silver plate, so if the bag doesn't come with a silver plate, you're S.O.L. Though I have been told the f/w '04 twiggy did have a silver plate - just for that one season. So that could help differentiate.
