The first time I visited Vogue, an editor asked if my bag was “Balence.”
She meant Balenciaga, but in my case:
“No, it’s vintage, but thanks.”
That was four years ago, but it could have been yesterday - the Motorcycle bag still rules.
Backstage at Chanel, a headcount: 10 models stashed stuff in that bag.
Back room at the party, a headcount: 1 starlet, 1 rocker’s daughter, and 4 brunettes, all hiding their hearts in that bag.
“How many are faux?” I dared, and half raised their hands.
So now I’ll dare you:
The bag in this photo - real, or fake?
[RAQUEL ZIMMERMAN - AM I THE IMAGINARY SOCIALITE?]
well.. it looks like leather.. and it looks pretty authentic… so i’m going to say real.
or a really good fake.
Fake.
Look at the handles, they’re too thin and long.
I just received a hand me down of an original Balenciaga in white.HOwever it is really worn and discolored.What suggestions do you have to clean up the act.I would like to use it.

FAKE… it looks awfully stiff
Real or fake, I will never understand why women put their bags on the floor…
FAKE
the studs are silver making it fake and leather looks different.
