On a replica, the lettering may be misaligned, spaced strangely or in an incorrect typeface. Next, examine the stitching on the bag. If you notice uneven stitches or loose stitches, the piece is unlikely to be authentic. Zippers on Miu Miu bags should feel heavy, move smoothly and bear the Miu Miu logo.
