Medusa sunglasses, La Medusa and Greca Goddess bags, Medusa belts and Barocco silk shirts are the Versace pieces people most often doubt. Certilogo codes help on newer items, but many genuine pieces have none and a copied code proves nothing. Our Versace authenticity check reviews the Medusa and Greca details, labels, hardware engravings, stitching and materials, plus inner temple markings on eyewear.

What we check on Versace

How to tell a real Versace from a fake

The Medusa is the first tell: on genuine pieces it is dimensional and finely detailed, while copies look flat or soft. It has changed over the decades, so every detail is compared with the right era and line.

01

Medusa head and Greca

Drawing, relief and symmetry of the Medusa and the Greca border, compared with the right era.

02

Label and line

Gianni Versace, Versace or Versace Jeans Couture label, with font and stitching matched to that line.

03

Product label code

On newer items, the NFC tag, QR code or CLG code on the product label and how it is printed. One checkpoint, since codes can be copied.

04

Hardware

Engraved logos, clean casting, and the color and weight of zips, clasps and medallions.

05

Stitching and leather

Uniform stitches on a straight line, matched thread and natural grain on bags, belts and small leather goods.

06

Sunglasses arms

MOD. and the model number, color code and sizes inside the left arm, VERSACE and the country of manufacture on the right.

07

Packaging

Dust bag, box, case, cloth and booklet print, used as supporting evidence only.

Featured questions

Have more questions? Visit our Help Center

Does a Versace Certilogo or CLG code prove my item is real?

No. Versace says newer items can be checked by tapping an NFC tag or scanning a QR code on the product label, and items with a CLG code register through Certilogo. A code copied from a genuine piece still checks out, and older pieces often have none. We read the code as one checkpoint and authenticate the item itself.

My Versace has no CLG code or QR label. Is it fake?

Not necessarily. Older and vintage pieces predate these product-label codes, so a missing code is normal on them. We date the piece from its label, the Medusa, the hardware and the construction, and compare it with references for that era and line.

Can you authenticate Versace sunglasses?

Yes. Photograph the front, both inner arms, the hinges, the Medusa on the arm, the lenses and the case. The code inside the left arm names the model and colors, and our sunglasses arm code check reads it. Fakes print the same codes, so the finishing decides.

How can you tell a fake Versace Medusa?

Look at the relief. A genuine Medusa head is dimensional and finely detailed, with crisp features and a clean Greca border, while copies tend to look flat or soft. The Medusa has changed by era, so we compare it with references for the right period and line.

How do I authenticate Versace shoes or clothing before buying?

Ask the seller for photos of the labels, the care tag, the Medusa or Greca details, the stitching and, for shoes, the size tag and outsole. Upload them and we check each detail against verified Versace references for that line and season, including Versace Jeans Couture.

Does Versace come with a certificate of authenticity?

We know of no paper certificate that a buyer can verify. Versace's own check runs through the NFC tag or QR code on newer product labels. If you need a certificate to share with a buyer, or the piece has no code, upload photos and we issue one with the verdict, Authentic or Fake.

Which photos should I upload for authentication?

For the most accurate and quick authentication process, we advise you to upload clear photos of the areas visible when clicking 'Upload photos' on this page. We quickly determine if the uploaded photo meets our criteria. If your photos do not meet the criteria, you will receive a request for more and/or clearer photos. Check out Photo Instructions to find clear examples for each detail.

How long does LegitGrails authentication process take?

We provide a range of authentication response times to suit your needs, with options including 12 hours, 6 hours, 2 hours, and 30 minutes.
