How To Authenticate Lanvin Clothing
Swing Tag (Front)
In this example, the 'LANVIN' text on the counterfeit tag is noticeably thinner, most noticeable in the stems of the letter 'N'. Additionally, the 'PARIS' text appears thicker and bolder.
The string on the counterfeit is much thicker and disproportionately large compared to the size of the hole punch it’s threaded through.
The counterfeit possesses a large gap between the tops of the letters ‘N’ and ‘V’.
Swing Tag (Back)
In this example, the counterfeit forgot the 'REF : ' section before printing the model of the product.
The counterfeit's text appears thinner, and both the font and positioning of the barcode numbers are incorrect.
Neck Label
In this example, the counterfeit label is stitched into the garment unevenly and does not appear neat.
The 'LANVIN' text on the counterfeit is too thin and repeats the same spacing error between the 'N' and 'V' as seen on the swing tag.
The counterfeit's font shows many structural inaccuracies, most noticeable in all letters of the 'PARIS' text.
Wash Label
In this example, the counterfeit label appears unnaturally pristine and freshly printed, missing the slight texture and finish seen on genuine tags.
The 'LANVIN' text is too thin and repeats the same spacing error between the 'N' and 'V' as seen on the swing tag and neck label.
The word 'PARIS' is printed too large, while the 'T.L' sizing is incorrect and poorly positioned.
The font shows some structural inaccuracies, such as a misaligned leg on the letter 'R' in the style code, and includes incorrect wash symbols.
