Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What are the dimensions and how does an 80 cm square wear day to day? A: This scarf measures approximately 80 × 80 cm. It’s a versatile mid-size square that works as a neckerchief (simple fold and French knot), a bandana-style head scarf, a ponytail or hairband wrap, or tied around a bag handle. It also folds neatly into a slim ascot under a blazer. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: What is the Dior Trotter (also known as Oblique) print? A: Dior’s signature monogram motif was introduced in 1967 by Marc Bohan and later saw a major revival in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Many collectors refer to versions of this motif as the Trotter print. It’s a classic house code and remains highly recognisable across Dior pieces.
Q: Is this scarf unisex? A: Yes. Square silk scarves are timeless and unisex. The 80 cm size suits a wide range of styling options for all wearers—from a simple neck knot to a headband or wrist wrap.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This listing includes the scarf itself. Everything that comes with the piece is always listed under the product information section on this page. If something like a box or dust cover isn’t listed there, it isn’t included.
Q: How can I style an 80 cm silk square? A: Try these quick options: classic French knot at the neck; bandana fold and tie; bias-folded slim neck tie; headband; wrist wrap; or a neat bow around a bag handle. For a fuller look at the neck, fold on the bias and tie with a small double knot slightly off-centre.
Q: How do I care for a vintage silk scarf? A: Keep it away from rain, perfumes and hairspray. To refresh, gently air it after wear. For cleaning, we recommend a specialist dry cleaner experienced with vintage silk. If you choose to hand-wash, first test for colourfastness on a hidden corner, use cool water with a silk-safe detergent, do not wring, and lay flat to dry. Avoid direct sunlight and high heat when drying or pressing.
Q: How should I store it to preserve the silk and colour? A: Store clean and fully dry. Fold loosely or roll with acid-free tissue and keep in a breathable pouch or box, away from sunlight, moisture and heat. Avoid plastic bags that can trap humidity, and don’t hang for long periods to prevent distortion.
Q: Are the edges hand-rolled? A: Many Dior silk squares feature hand-rolled, hand-stitched edges. Please examine our close-up photos to see the edge finish on this specific piece; we’re happy to provide further images on request.
Q: How do you authenticate this scarf? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is thoroughly examined by our in-house experts. For Dior silk squares we assess print clarity and alignment, fabric quality, edge finishing, signatures and labels, and compare construction and details against known references. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: Will the navy colour transfer or fade? A: High-quality silks hold colour well, but any richly dyed silk may bleed if soaked or left damp. Always test for colourfastness before hand-washing, keep away from rain, and dry flat out of direct sunlight to prevent fading.
