How can you tell if Dior heels are fake?

To tell if Dior heels are fake, check the sole of the shoe.

The star is a signature icon of the brand that can be found on many Dior pumps. One of the points of the star should be pointing directly upward versus the askew direction that you might typically associate with a star’s points. On replicas, the points are often askew. In addition, the star should feature a miniature hole in its center. Counterfeits may be characterized by a mere depression rather than an actual hole that you can see through.
