@jessicarabbit13 @sheelagoh Thank you, sweet dears, for being my eyes in unknown closets!!!!! Much love!!! ❤😘❤
golyndsey
@tylercole4u Hey dear! Thank you SO MUCH for looking... That particular scarf, sadly, is inauthentic. But please keep your eyes out!!! In general, I only buy the skull scarves from Harrods as they are still made; but for his older fashion scarves, I am very much interested. Thanks again!!! ❤😘❤
thatchicklc
@tylercole4u @golyndsey my scarf is not fake! It still has the tags with the original price from Barney's. When you purchase a knock off, the tag from a specific retailer does not come with it. Good luck finding the one you want!
golyndsey
@thatchicklc Hello! As an avid collector of McQueen, I made the above statement only because the name stamp appears to be inconsistent with that which I know to be authentic. My apologies if I offended. Best... ❤😘❤
thatchicklc
@golyndsey this is news to me! Maybe I am in the wrong 😖 thank you!
golyndsey
@thatchicklc Hey dear! With the number of counterfeits nowadays being sold as "guaranteed authentic", many have fallen victim as it sounds you have. I would be MORE than happy to share some industry tells of counterfeits so you might protect yourself better in the future. My email is golyndsey@gmail.com if interested. Thanks!
alliem
@golyndsey I don't think the ones with $220 tags are authentic! I have never seen a McQ scarf sell for that price! Am I missing something? Anyways tag me as well! I'm obsessed with his scarves!
golyndsey
@alliem While there have been authentic McQ scarves which retailed for $220; they were not the classic skull scarves, nor were they recent. Price aside, there are many other "tells" which render the majority of scarves listed here inauthentic. I am by no means an expert, but I am very knowledgable when it comes to Alexander McQueen's fashion and skull collection scarves. If ever you have questions, feel free to tag me and if I see any authentic, I will do the same for you! ❤😘❤
alliem
@golyndsey some of the fakes are so good these days it's hard to tell from a picture! They have the tags, stitching, lettering so close! I will tag you for second opinion! Thanks in advance!!
almoyes
You are scaring me!?!! I have AM scarves from Barney's NY. Which parts of the name stamp should I be looking at to weed out counterfeits? Thank you in advance!
golyndsey
@almoyes Hey dear! I will put together a list of several giveaways this weekend!!! It really is unfortunate to see the amount of counterfeits being passed off as "Guaranteed Authentic". Every once in a while I will browse eBay in the hopes of spotting a scarf from one of AM's older collections (they are so ridiculously amazing) and am blown away at such blatant deception. 99.999% of scarves on eBay are counterfeit. And that INCLUDES the ones listed for $500, $600, $700! Asking price does NOT ensure authenticity! More to come... ❤😘❤
almoyes
Always great when info posted. Just curious because the other woman had AM from Barney's that you questioned. I have different styles from Barney's as well, so curious about that. I am a tad over the top, lol. I only buy from boutiques and department stores. My Chanel folks laugh because I check all of the items that I purchase from them.
golyndsey
@almoyes You are in good company!!!!! I scrutinize every microscopic detail of that which I buy. I am highly OCD when it comes to fashion purchases (well, any purchases quite honestly... Lol). It HAS to be perfect. Though I've never purchased McQueen from Barney's, I'm certain that items actually obtained from there would have no inconsistencies with that which I have obtained from AM in Los Angeles and Nordstrom.
A few tips regarding skulls scarves..... (I will try to make dedicated listings in the future to keep the craziness to a minimum on my "searching for" posts!)
1. All name stamps on the skull scarves will appear with Alexander on top and McQueen on the bottom. The "feet" on the "A" will line up PERFECTLY with the "feet" on the "M" and the "feet" on the "R" will line up PERFECTLY with the "feet" of the "U". Absolutely NO exceptions.
2. The distance between the skull border and the hem is always the width of the border. Anything longer or shorter is likely counterfeit.
3. The hem is always done in a "braid-like" wrap. No exceptions (as far as I am aware). I have never known a hem on a classic skull to have a rolled or straight machine stitched hem.
4. The name "ALEXANDER MCQUEEN" is PERFECTLY spaced on the label/tag. This has zero exceptions. A good rule of thumb is to inspect the "A" between the "X" and the "N". If the tip of the "A" is not exactly in the middle, if the "X" looks a bit "squished", if any or all of the font appears italicized, if the name looks slightly more like "ALEX ANDER" as opposed to ALEXANDER..... Chances are it is counterfeit. Additionally, the tag is always stitched horizontally and, as far as I have ever seen, on the bottom of the hem. It is never stitched in a "loop-like" fashion on the side.
There are many other ways to weed out counterfeits, but the above should help significantly in the majority of cases. ❤😘❤
almoyes
Always learn something new...Interesting new information for me on 2 & 4 above, thank you. I don't collect these, but now curious about the items I purchased and I will check. As I alluded to previously--even if purchased from the larger, main establishments-- I am OCD and I check all that I can. Hehe. Thank you very much for all of this!!

@golyndsey Check my closet. I just listed one for you! :)
warilife
@golyndsey thanks
golyndsey
@warilife Thank you for being a respectful and responsible seller! If you live near an Alexander McQueen store, the managers are usually agreeable to assisting you in authentication. McQueen is one of the most counterfeited designer, sadly, and they will know just what to look for! ❤🌹💀🌹❤
martha_10
I just saw an Alexander McQueen size 42 asking 282.00 being sold by Oxigen.
It is in the Bold party going on now, under host picks. Thought I would pass along
golyndsey
@martha_10 I just looked her up and didn't see it listed... :'(
martha_10
Darn maybe mi can find it. Sorry.
golyndsey
@martha_10 No worries! Thank you so much for thinking about me! ❤🌹😘🌹❤
martha_10
I am in her closet and it is there. I tried to share with you but u have to be a follower of mine. But it there with all kinds of Dolce and other name items. I personally do not know her. Just remember you wanted to know.
golyndsey
@martha_10 Hmmmmm... I still don't see it. I looked up the user "oxigen" and also searched Alexander McQueen scarves and scrolled down searching for her name. Nothing... Weird. :/
martha_10
Oppps my bad it is a blouse, sorry
golyndsey
@martha_10 LOL!!! It's allllllll good.🌹❤🌹

@golyndsey Your so welcome! I'll stop back.
golyndsey
@vintagemask Thank you SO MUCH for thinking of me!!! I felt it more appropriate to comment here on my listing as the scarves you tagged me on were counterfeit. Still, I appreciate the tag regardless. Happy poshing!!! 🌹❤🌹
golyndsey
@lovelm Thank you for all the shares! Very much appreciated! ❤🌹😘🌹❤

@marykat thanks for tag. Don't have any AM but I concur that there are tons of fakes on ebay. Seeing a lot of fake Cartier love bracelets there too all sellers with zero (0) feedback. Posh doesn't seem to stop fakes at all. The report function is a joke.
juliepointer1
☺☺what budget/color/etc were you hoping for?;)
golyndsey
@juliepointer1 I am most interested in his collection pieces - especially pre-mortem. Price is not a consideration. Thank you! XXOO 🌹❤🌹

golyndsey
@cmjla Inauthentic all the way... Kills me at the amount of counterfeits being passed off as otherwise. 💔🌹💀🌹💔
cmjla
At least call it what it is! Ugh I hate that! Pretty easy to discern when the rest of the closet is filled with Hollister and kohls 😝😜⚠⚠⚠
golyndsey
@cmjla Yes... And who the hell has ever heard of ALEX ANDER MCQUEEN?!?!?! Unbelievable. Dead giveaway EVERY time.
golyndsey
@cmjla Soooooooooooo counterfeit... :((((
cmjla
Oh do tell me the tells!!! Sad. I like(d) that girl. 😓😞
golyndsey
@cmjla Tag is a dead giveaway. Never EVER is the care label stitched to the middle of the tag. I won't even go into the pricing.
This scarf sells rampantly on eBay for $30-$40. Shame that more isn't done to remove illegal merchandise. :(
cmjla
Ahhh yes I see!!! 😡 Ugh it really is a shame!!! I just don't understand these people who try and scam others!!! Karma is a biatch!!! And when you see tons of garbage in someone's closet don't you just want to pull these girls aside and say, hey, babe, if you just would have forgone those 10 Hollister tops that you now couldn't get 5 bucks for you could have had one fabulous designer item that you could sell easily if you care for it correctly... For at least half to sometimes more than what you actually bought it for, depending on what it is. I for one would rather have an authentic Coach bag than 10 Fucci bags any day 😘💕✌
golyndsey
@cmjla I hear you. I have never owned fake anything... And don't understood those who do. In my opinion, it speaks volumes against one's character. Honesty and integrity are EVERYTHING in my book.
cmjla
AMEN Sister!!! AMEN!
golyndsey
@scarlettstained Hey cousin!!!!! Thank you for ALL those tags!!!! In my opinion, and I might be wrong on one, they are inauthentic. All of which can be found on eBay for a fraction of the asking price here. Counterfeits are getting better, so I keep up on my homework. It is discouraging, to say the least, that so much illegality dominates in the fashion world. Be very careful always, lovebug! XXOO❤🌹💀🌹❤
golyndsey
@scarlettstained Correction... I can't be certain of the listing which contained the Burberry scarf... Those were merely hanging! And, while the tag is not correct on the red and black, the scarf looks good. XXOO
scarlettstained
It's just awful that people even create copycats! Just trickery it's dishonest.and most of us are not professionals making it easy to be taken advantage of.if I've got to have a name brand I just buy direct if I must be sure or only from best friends who I know shop direct.the ways of the world!!I just found a few scarves for ya, I'll leave the private eye to you cousin mmuaahh!
golyndsey
@scarlettstained Agreed! I still appreciate the rage, though! I frequently forget to check, so I rely on my posh busy bees to tag me!!!! LOLOL! XXOO❤🌹💀🌹❤
lilmscrys
@kleinlori has mcqueen
lilmscrys
I bought one on ebay for $275,,,,,,,,was pissed because it was fake. I sold it here on Posh last year for $60
golyndsey
@lilmscrys Oh, I'm so sorry... eBay, sadly, is a hotbed for counterfeits. It is a rarity to find anything authentic there.
mauishopgirl
Thank you for sharing my Pucci scarf. I have a light grey w/purple skulls silk that I bought from a AMcQ shop in NYC on a girls trip that I've never used, NWT, still not sure whether I'm going to list or not. I'll log your name down just in case I do. I recently joined posh and love it but am pretty disgusted at all the fakes and replicas. I always try to encourage friends to consider lower prices emerging or small brands if they can't afford a well known designer. Counterfeit goods exploit labor and fund some nasty stuff.
golyndsey
@mauishopgirl Oh, you are SO right. I only wish that people could physically SEE what their counterfeit purchases fund (I.e. drugs, weapons, trafficking, prostitution and more)!
With so many GREAT pieces in today's marketplace, there is no need to buy counterfeit anything to be "stylish"! Some of my most unique pieces are just that - UNIQUE! Neither mass produced nor designer.
Please feel free to tag me on anything you feel I might have interest in! XXOO
tinated
Just so you know, I am going to put one up tonight. It's not a skull one. It has pink razors.
tinated
Now (after reading all your hints), I'm totally paranoid about mine. Eek.
golyndsey
@tinated Oh, no! I'm happy to look at your pics when posted....
tinated
Well, it's McQ, so I don't know if all the same rules apply. Could it be a fake if it's from a department store?
golyndsey
@tinated If you personally purchased this from a department store such as Bloomingdales, Nordstrom, Neiman's, Harrods... I really wouldn't worry. I wouldn't, however, base proof of authenticity on anyone's word. People lie (sadly). When in doubt, always cross reference. Anyone can say they purchased something at a store. Ask them which store. Call the store and ask if they carried that particular scarf. Ask them when they carried it and what it's price was. Sales people come and go but managers don't and will recall stock that was carried many years past. Never hesitate to speak with them. In many cases, you can email pictures for even greater assistance! Same at the McQueen store. The general manager knows ALL collections and will be able to help authenticate if you email them specific pictures.
tinated
Thanks! I definitely feel better because I bought it from a store, not a person.
golyndsey
@tinated Yay!!!!! (((Phew))) A good rule of thumb for ANY designer purchases is to tape/pin the receipt to the dust bag/envelope/box! This will come in handy should you ever need to return, have repaired or resell! XXOO
golyndsey
@4me Hey sweets!!! Long time no chat! Thanks for tagging me... I own that scarf and am 99.9% certain of its inauthenticity. The hem and material are all wrong and you CANNOT launder the scarf (as she claims she has done)! Hopefully other interested parties will notice what I have and pass. 💔💀💔
belladior
I am posting one now!!! And have some of my collection for sale 💀💀💀

@golyndsey I totally understand!! Eventually I will treat myself and buy some AMQ bracelets. I totally get the obsession!! 😉😉
catherine_cc
@kleinlori has McQueen from the Autumn 2011 scarf collection. But I think that you may already be aware of her closet.
golyndsey
@catherine_cc Oh, yes... @kleinlori and I know each other well! A finer collection of items, you'd be hard pressed to find on Poshmark. XXOO
catherine_cc
Thank you for responding.
