Per Una Skirt?

Morning All
I really liked a skirt which was advertised on a fashion website.
However it's arrived this morning and I'm not 100% convinced that it is a Per Una one, is there anyway I can check for sure? There's no labels inside the lining and no mention of Per Una or anything on the washing instructions.
Thanks

Which website did you buy it from? Unless you bought it from the M&S website or Ebay then it probably is'nt Per Una....0

Which website was it? Might be able to tell from that. Otherwise if there's a Marks and Spencers near you there might be someone who can take a look at it for you.0

Are you happy with the skirt and the price you paid for it?
If you are does it really matter if it's a Per Una or not?
If you are not happy then you can return it, the website says 'We offer a 14 day no quibble returns policy'.Some days you're the dog..... most days you're the tree!

Maybe it is a M&S second and they have removed the tags and replaced them with a generic washing instruction.
There is a Dewhurst factory shop near me and they sell mainly M&S seconds/last seasons/current season stock and there is not an M&S label in sight they are removed. Perhaps to prevent you buying it at a discount and trying to return it to M&S direct for full refund?You can stand there and agonize........

Looks a legit website to me. As long as the skirt feels and looks quality I would say it is Per Una. As Kandipandi says, they have probably removed the labels to prevent buyers taking clothes back to the store for a refund. It might be worth giving them a call/email to set your mind at rest though

I bought a Marks and Spencers real leather handbag from a discount store and it was the real deal- labels inside but they had scribbled black marker on them for the same reason as above.0 -
hi there
just to add to what others have said:
i used to run a little ebay shop, i would buy wholesale from tradeclearinghouse.co.uk or similar - the brand names are genuine, but the labels are removed/blacked out, or sometimes they never had labels - i expect this website you bought from is doing the same. it probably is per una. hth.0 -
Thanks everyone for your replies.
