Balenciaga handbags are highly sought-after because of their sophisticated design and because of the supple goat's leather used in their construction to give the bags a naturally distressed look. They come in a wide range of colors like sky blue, bubblegum pink, navy, pewter, apple green and magenta. They also come in various styles and sizes to meet any need. No two Balenciaga handbags are identical thanks to the naturally varying patterns. Here's what to look for to ensure you're buying a authentic Balenciaga handbag.

Step1
Check the zipper. All authentic Balenciaga handbags have Lampo brand zippers. Find the Lampo label on the inside of the zipper and look for the italicized letters that are raised, not engraved.

Step2
Look for the nameplate. The Balenciaga nameplate is either a silver plate or a leather tag, depending on the year it was made and the handbag model. The model number is on the front of the plate, and the serial number is on the back. The model number matches the first six of the serial numbers on the back.

Step3
Examine the hardware. All of the tassels on Balenciaga bags are attached with sealed, metal rings.

Step5
Find the "Controllato" card on the inside of Balenciaga's signature cosmetic mirror. All authentic Balenciaga handbags have one.
