No, silk can be that shiny. But the edges are machine sewn, so I'd wager it's fake.

I know it can be that shiny. Just nothing outside a 4 block radius of Canal st. can be legit and that shiny.

That looks bad even for China. Steer clear. Do you own anything from Louis Vuitton? How could you even imagine that might be real?

If you have to ask wether this (insert brand) is real... You probably shouldn't buy it...

Thanks for the replies. I just saw the exact same scarf on www.ioffer.com for $18. Also the "L" doesn't look like the same font as the real ones on their website.
