I don't know if it's real or not. But I figure it's like cubic ziconia, the only ones who know that it's fake are the ones who own the real thing.  |
Among the fakes, fake Prada and fake LV are the easiest to spot! Prada bags are known for their absolutly flawless construction! The second you see the triangle on the front you will know if it is fake or not...A Prada is fake if the triangle is glued on or attached with little metal prongs. It should be attached to a piece of leather that is sewn onto the bag (for the most part but some prada sport & tessuto bags they are directly on the fabric).The interior of the bags have a silky satin like lining with PRADA writing in stitching spaced exactly 3/4" apart. Hardware is matte almost brushed stainless steel with the word PRADA written on it in clear small deep engraving. The zipper pulls are either in fabric or leather never metal and PRADA never appears on a real bag on the zipper pull. Seams and stitching are flawless. You will never see a thread out of place. Some seams are stitched inside out..time consuming and clearly the mark of good craftsmanship. The triangle is ALWAYS perfectly square and the printing on the triangle in clear and sharp. Inside the bag you will also find an enameled plate that says PRADA MADE IN ITALY all in capital letters and behind that a small quality control number.
