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 number located on the inside of the handbag. In
recent years, some designer handbags have a small hologram
attached to the interior to mark it as 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". They are not made with the same
quality craftsmanship and materials as the authentic, and
are often manufactured in 3rd world countries using cheap
factory labor. It should be noted that the manufacture and
sale of knockoff handbags is a violation of copyright
law.
