An authentic handbag or fashion
accessory is the original designed and manufactured
by the designer name on the name tag. Many of the
high fashion designers will include authenticity
cards with the handbag, or will have a serial
stamped on the inside of the handbag. In recent
years, some designer handbags will have a small
hologram attached to the interior to mark an
authentic design. Imitations of handbags and other
accessories are copied and made to look almost like
the original, and can even have the designers name
on them. These imitations are called "fakes",
"knockoffs", or "replicas", and are not made with
the same quality craftsmanship and materials, and
are often manufactured in 3rd world countries with
cheap factory labor. It should be noted that the
manufacture and sale of fake handbags is a
violation of copyright law.
