How do you tell if Vivienne Westwood clothing is real?
To tell if Vivienne Westwood clothing is real, start with the label. Compare the font, layout and spacing of the brand label and care tags found inside your garment to images of authentic labeling shared via trusted online resources. Closely examining a piece can also be helpful. Vivienne Westwood manufactures apparel in accordance with strict quality standards, so details like uneven stitching, difficult-to-use zippers or loose buttons may indicate a replica. When in doubt, have a certified appraiser or other knowledgeable expert authenticate pieces for you. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Vivienne Westwood apparel.
