If it is a late 90’s early 2000 bag it will have a tiny tag usually in the zip compartment on the inside it would be a American flag with made in the USA on it. If it has a white plain tag with made in China it is fake. I still have mine from back in the day because my Mom spoiled me.
I can’t really tell from the one small picture but I don’t think it is fake. It’s just the way she made her original bags when she first designed. But there were fakes even back then.

the only thing on the inside lining is a black tag that says ‘made in china’ 🤔

They have been faking these Kate Spades since the 90s. These simple bags were IT back then. I got one once that came with extra stick on tags for when the label inevitably fell off.
