If I wanted to buy a designer purse, I'd probably be tempted by the knockoff Pradas and Guccis nestled into dirty sheets outside all the major tourist attractions in town. But I hope I would notice that the vendors bundle the whole shebang up like a...um...hobo bag and start heading in the other direction when the police are near.In recent years, Italy has started to crack down on pirated fashion. Signs are posted to warn unsuspecting shoppers. For the price of the ticket -- $1,000 -- you could almost afford the real thing.
Wonder if they'd care as much about a Hermes bag....
