Hi everyone, recently found this forum and this is my first post here
Could anyone help me authenticate (or trash!) this Chanel sweater dress, please?
The only tag is the label tag which seem authentic as well as a small hang tag that says "Fabrique en Italie. No size, content/care tag. The label is only attached with single stitches on each side, I'm not sure if this was the norm in the 80's or if the label had come off and the re-attached for some reason. It looks and feels like real nice wool knit, fully lining. The buttons say 'Chanel-Rue-Cambon-Paris' and are also labeled 'Chanel' on their back side.
Any oppinions? I don't think it looks like something that would be faked, espacially since it is clearly an older piece - 80's based on the label resource here but I do know that everything can be faked and authentic tags/buttons can be sewn onto any garment.
I've had this item now for several months and haven't been able to find anything similar so was pretty sure it's a fake until today, when I spotted an identical dress (just different colors) on ebay, on a listing that just ended. (listing link removed by Admin) Seeing that listing made me think there is a chance my is authentic as well so I decided to come here and ask for your oppinions.. So, what do you all think? Any ideas/thoughts/info will be greatly appreciated!
