    I had purchased 3 chanel scarfs at a local shop. I would like to know if these are real. Thanks in advance.

    welcome to our forums, Michelle ~

    you might want to quickly read through our Welcome Thread. In it, you will see guideline #5:

    • 5 - Trade Members of the VFG are unable to authenticate designer labels on the forums. For authentication we recommend contacting the design house directly.
    Personally, I have seen and handled faux Chanel scarves (and handbags) that were brought in to Hawaii from Korea and Hong Kong by flight attendants in the 1990s: they were amazing quality, the labels were even fake, of course, and perfectly done.

    If you want to be absolutely sure, you should check with a Chanel boutique.

    I can't tell you whether they are authentic, but I can tell you what to look for in fakes.
    Is the printing perfectly aligned?
    Are their any mispelled words?
    Is the hem handsewn?

    @ Claireshaeffer. The printin is perfectly aligned, there is no misspelled words and the hem is handsewn.

    Comparing these to my own vintage Chanel scarves....they look genuine.
