Designer inspired means it was inspired by a brand or specific bag- looks like the style, but does not bear a designer logo like Chanel's CC or Gucci's GG or whoever it is inspired by. Like a no name bag that looks like Chanel or one that is made by another brand like a bag that looks like Chanel but is by Baby Phat. It is fake when it is styled after a brand and bears that brand's logo/trademark symbols or is just a random style but bears the brand's logo/trademarks. Hope this makes sense to you.

Knockoff/inspired and fake/counterfeit are not the same thing.

Like, Steve Madden knocks off Christian Louboutin shoes all the time, but they are not fake, they are considered inspired whereas you see a gal carrying an LV logo covered bag that is horribly made or not even a style LV makes- it is fake/counterfeit.
