handles are too long, and the leather tab is not shaped correctly, either. maybe even celebs can't stomach spending $1200 on a canvas bag?
Share your thoughts on the... 2024 Met Gala

And my eyes are fine enough, thank you very much. Please continue with your sombre pronouncements on Anna's perfidy to the LV oath.

just like if someone were to look at me in jeans and a tee shirt and hoodie, 22 yrs old, not very 'luxurious' looking on an everyday basis, working some small time job, and assume my bag was fake simply by where i work and what i am wearing i would be highly offended.
actually that happened to my sister. she works in a market, her friend in the deli saw a lady's cerise speedy..
she's talkative so she was like 'i like your bag' and mentioned that 'her friend' (my sister) had one.
the lady said snottily: 'if she works here, it's FAKE!'
my sister (24 years old) doesn't need to work, really. she does so to do something with her time and earn the extra money as to not feel guilty about throwing it around on a $995 bag. she was one of the first people the boston boutique called the day the cerise collection was available instores. it was a HUGE slap in the face for her to hear that someone is assuming she has a fake just because of her job.
I was wondering about all the bags on Gossip Girl. They have 500 bags on set. FIVE HUNDRED! That's a lot of money even for a big budget movie.....wonder if they have replicas on that set too.....
The show has a reputable stylist, his name is Eric Daman. So I bet he wouldn't let the characters carry fake bags. Plus, they just borrow the clothes and bags they use in the show from fashion houses anyways, they don't purchase them (same thing goes for Sex and the City). That's a major plus for a particular fashion house because their products get free publicity from the show.
