How to tell if your Gucci scarf is real
- The first thing to check out is the quality of the material. If you wrap the scarf around your neck and it feels as if the wind's blowing right through it, the chances are the material is cheap and you're wearing an imitation. Also, over a period of time, a fake will become more obvious. Fakes tend to fray and wear a lot more quickly than the real deal.
- The second thing to keep an eye out for is the labeling. Look at the way the logo looks and feels on the fabric. Compare it with a scarf that's in the official Gucci store. Does it feel the same and look the same? Then you could be on to a keeper! Some Gucci products also come with authentication labels, which can help you tell if your item is genuine.
- If none of the above helps you, there's one certain way of knowing... The price! If something sounds too cheap to be real, it usually is. Gucci is an expensive brand, so don't buy any of those stories about 'returned stock' and last season's styles. There are bargains out there, but Gucci scarves will always command a certain price!
