1] DIOR IS MADE IN ITALY !!!! MOST FAKES SAY MADE IN FRANCE BECAUSE THE LABEL ON ALL DIOR PRODUCTS SAY CHRISTIAN DIOR PARIS SO IT IS ASSUMED THE BAG WAS MADE IN FRANCE! WRONG! THE QUICKEST WAY TO SPOT A FAKE IS SPOTTING THE WORDS MADE IN PARIS WHICH IS A RED LIGHT! STOP THIS BAG IS A FAKE! I EVEN SAW A LISTING THE OTHER DAY WHERE A SELLER WAS LISTING A "AUTH" BAG THAT WAS MARKED MADE IN JAPAN!!!!!! OK THERE MAY BE A STORE SELLING AUTHENTIC DIORS IN JAPAN BUT THE LABEL STILL READS MADE IN Italy..
A REAL DIOR BAG ONLY HAS A BLACK LEATHER INSIDE RECTANGULAR TAG THAT HAS TINY CONNECTING PERFECT STICHES ALL AROUND THE BORDER OF THE INSIDE TAG. WHICH IS ALWAYS SEWN ON OUTSIDE OF THE LITTLE ZIPPERED COMPARTMENT CENTERED IN THE MIDDLE. ONLY THE UPPER PART OF THE TAG IS ACTUALY ATTACHED TO THE INSIDE POCKET. IT SHOULD READ CHRISTIAN DIOR AND BELOW IT PARIS. THE TAG SHOULD FLIP UP SO YOU CAN SEE THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF TAG WHICH IN IN ALL CAPITOL LETTERS READS MADE IN ITALY AND BELOW THAT IS THE CRITICAL SIGN OF DETECTING A FAKE THE SERIAL
2] THE LINING THE MOST OBVIOUS WAY TO TELL IF BAG IS A FAKE. REAL DIOR BAGS THE LINING. ALL DIOR BAGS HAVE A SOLID DARK NYLON LINING THERE IS NO MONNOGRAMMED PRINTED LININGS. THE SLEEPER BAG IS ALWAY WHITE SUPERIOR COTTON OR SILK WITH CHRISTIAN DIOR PRINTED ONCE IN BLACK.
3} PRICE??? EVEN USED AUTH DIOR BAGS ON EBAY SELL FOR A FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS, YOU CAN NOT BUY A REAL DIOR FOR 249.00 DOLLARS OR LESS UNLESS THE SELLER SELLING A VINTAGE ONE HAS A REASON WHY PRICE IS SO LOW , IT HAPPENS, SO JUST ASK THE OTHER QUESTIONS ABOUT THE LINING, LABEL ETC.
1. The Stitches
The iconic quilting seen on many Dior items was inspired by the Napoleon III chairs. The stitching should be perfect at the authentic bag, it is tiny and you can not feel it by touching and it’s the same tone of color as the bag. In the fake one the stitching isn’t as perfect as the authentic, is thick and the color of it is different from the color of the bag.
2. The Handles and Charms
The handles are very important to look at. In the authentic bag they are rigid and structured. The handles of a fake bag are not stable as in the real one and are easily moveable side to side. They fall up and down and make sound while moving them, but in the authentic this doesn’t happen, the handles doesn’t fall down and they can’t move side to side like the fake. The handles of the fake bag are thicker, wider and not in a good quality or the best shape as the real one is.
Dior’s code is usually the best way to spot out a fake as the counterfeit bags usually get this wrong!
The code is made up of both numbers and letters separated with a dash “-“
The code on the back of the label should be made up of two numbers, two letters and four numbers.
2. The Inner Label
The label inside the bag should be fixed on its top and have “Christian Dior” and “Paris” on the front.
On the back of the label it should have the code and made in Italy or Spain. However, this may change for each Dior bag so you must do your research as the Dior Gaucho bag will have both “Christian Dior Paris” and Made in Italy on the front of the label!
The writing on the label should be perfectly embossed onto the label it should not be printed!
3. The stitching of the inner label
As we mentioned earlier everything should be perfect, therefore the stitching of the label inside should be perfectly stitched.
Bags produced after mid 90’s should have perfect stitches on all four corners of the inner label while the ones produced in early 90’s should have the stitch going through the top portion of the label only!
Bags made before the early 90s making them vintage should have a gold or silver stamping saying
“Made in France”
4. The Hardware
This one is nice and easy and is usually spotted with the naked eye!
Dior hardware should not be sparkly or shiny it should be matte and have almost an old look to it.
5. The Dustbag
A vintage dustbag from Dior shows the retro oval Christian Dior Paris logo. However, new dustbags should have nothing more than grey Dior lettering printed on the white cotton while the older bags should have grey Christian Dior Paris letters.
