Need help with CHANEL dress authenticity!!

I found this today at the local thrift store. Our area is a high end area so it wouldn’t be uncommon to find someone getting rid of a high end item there, but I’m unsure of the label. Help! It’s in fantastic shape

Easy peasy online. I’ve used authenticate4u and Etinceler. A4u is a great resource as they have specialists for multiple labels. Etinceler is just Chanel. Both are terrific. 

 

We can only recommend when specifically asked or I would have said something earlier. 😀

Would help to see more than the label.  People swap labels from good brands onto cheaper brands.

I'm only seeing one picture. Are there supposed to be more? 

I'm not an expert but I'm curious about the Dior Logo shoes. Did you verify authenticity of those shoes?

The rest of the pictures are attached. Looks identical to the dress in the Chanel Collection

If the piece is authentic it’s worth a ton of money so go use a professional authentictor. Chanel is inexpensive to authenticate and can be done for approx. $7.50 to $10.00.

Very yummie and looks good.


Definitely worth the small investment to get authenticated, as jsales recommended.

I'll be most interested in what any authenticators have to say about that label with its mismatched font (narrow H, wide A, wrong N) + the 'squared' CC  — all of which I've only seen on fakes:

@genemaat 

So good to see you back here. I have no idea if it’s genuine or not as I’ve already stated, but I do know that the camera can do such odd distortions that IMO it’s a no brainer to spend $7.50 or a few dollars more for a pro unless a known boardie can definitely call it out as fake which no one has done until you’ve now questioned it. I honestly don’t know why anyone messes around w/o professional authentication when they’re holding an item that’s worth a ton if genuine. 

 

OP, when you submit pictures be very careful to shoot the label flat and directly over it to avoid distortion as much as possible and post back after you receive a response.

DISCLAIMER: I'm not commenting on authenticity as I don't know the product well enough to do so. 

 

But I do want to illustrate differences in the labels. (The OP's label is on the left.):

Ouch...Thanks for posting Alberta and for catching that genemaat-I never would have.

I do have a question. The circled CC logo is definitely messed up on the OPs piece (which I didn’t see before) but the “stitch line” does exist which is totally different on the example Albert posted.  Anyone know the difference?
