What Is
FASHIONPHILE Certified?
FASHIONPHILE Certified is our in-person authentication service for your ultra-luxury bags and accessories. Bring your pre-owned pieces to a Flagship location, and have our experts authenticate them while you shop. Items certified authentic receive a FASHIONPHILE Certificate of Authenticity and a unique identification number for verification. Trusted by collectors, investors, and resellers worldwide, the FASHIONPHILE Certificate of Authenticity is backed by a lifetime guarantee.
The White-Glove Difference
Our authenticators bring decades of experience to the authentication table. By physically examining every stitch, stamp, and serial number, they can detect designer details that elude digital tools. During their six-step expert process, they identify damages, repairs, odors, dirt, and the provenance of your pieces. From feeling the leather’s grain to assessing the hardware’s weight to smelling the canvas’s quality, their human touch cannot be replicated by apps, algorithms, or AI. Your items are in trusted, white-gloved hands.
