1.) Firstly, there were ONLY ever 5 limited edition colours produced which are as follows:
UK Brown - Medium shade (could be described as earthy or pale chocolate)
USA Blue - Navy
Asia Grey - Charcoal
Japanese Green - Dark green
Breast Cancer Awareness Special Edition (Lavender Trust) - Pastel pink/mauve
(Only 200 pink ones were produced so it is not likely that you will get your hands on one unless you are willing to pay a very steep price.
Any other colours or shades of the above ARE imitations so avoid like the plague!
2.) If the advert states that the bag is "I'm NOT A Plastic bag" or Anya Hindmarch 'Inspired' then it is
NOT an authentic bag.
3.) A genuine "I'm NOT A Plastic Bag" has no pockets e.g. for mobile phone and is open top with no
zips, poppers or fasteners of any kind whatsoever.
4.) Your bag should look / be described as the following...
As the item is handmade the measurements (cm) given below are approximations although your item should not noticeably variate.
Please pay very close attention to detail as you may need to rely on ONLY ONE of the following signs to determine if a well produced
imitation is just that.
a.) Handmade from high quality cream cotton canvas with large "I'm NOT A Plastic bag" stitched lettering across the front in one of the colours from
above and trimmed in a matching shade.
(See Section 3 and Section 4 for a detailed analysis of the stitched lettering although I would advise reading through this section first).
b.) The Anya Hindmarch London designer logo (bow with A and H in each loop) should be approximately 2cm wide and 1cm tall.
The logo should be stitched approx 1 inch from the top of the bag to the center of the bow (or 2cm from trim to top of the bow and set centrally
between the handle eye-holes.
