Fendi Handbags

Fendi is an Italian fashion designer brand founded in 1925, most famous for its selection of shoes and furs. Fendi boutiques can be found all over the world. In recent years, Fendi entered the American market with stores in New York, Bal Harbour, and the Galleria in Houston. Today, as part of LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton S.A. group, its creative director is Karl Lagerfeld.

For this reason you must be careful when buying Fendi handbags. If you are happy with a fake, that's OK but just make sure you pay the lower price! Don't get stung.

How to spot a fake Fendi

A genuine Fendi handbag is perfectly stitched with no mistakes, the fabric is of good durable quality. The zips and press studs will have the Fendi label stamped on them - and it will be very clear, not 'smudged'. The bag will come packed in a Fendi branded plastic dust bag and be packaged with cards and guarantees. These printed items will be very clearly printed, with no spelling mistakes. Counterfeiters will always try to replicate all the details but always fail in some small detail. If you are offered a Fendi bag without packaging etc you should be suspicious and ask a lot of questions.

If you don't know every Fendi style, get online to the eluxury store (owned by the Chanel Group) and browse the range.
