12.About Authentic Designer Handbags

Considered as a fashion accessory for women, designer handbags were first introduced as a product for the elite. Mainstream women also wanted to own the handbags of the rich and famous, and this demand initiated the rise of designers who created more styles.

History

In 1892, the Louis Vuitton Company of France began selling designer handbags exclusively for men. It wasn't until the 20th century that designers began to add handbags to their collections for women.

Price

Authentic designer handbags are expensive because of their exceptional detailing, workmanship and high quality materials, such as leather, vinyl or fabric. Designers oversee the production process to assure quality control on any new styles.

Availability

You can find authentic designer handbags at department stores, boutiques and individual designer's flagship stores. Pricing is set, but discounts for end-of-the-season or other discontinued items do occur.

Renting

Consider saving the cost of buying an authentic designer handbag by renting one. Browse the Internet for the companies offering rentals, including Chanel, Fendi, Gucci, Hermes and Prada.

Counterfeits

According to The New York Times, counterfeit handbags are rampant. Buying a fake hurts revenue for the design house and its employees and encourages the spread of the sweatshops that make the fake bags.
