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 does the “80” refer to on this Dior scarf? A: It denotes the approximate size of the square scarf, 80 × 80 cm. This versatile format works well as a neckerchief, headscarf, or tied to a bag handle.
Q: What is the Trotter (also called Oblique) motif? A: It is Dior’s signature repeating monogram, designed by Marc Bohan in 1967. The graphic, slanted logo pattern has appeared on many vintage and modern Dior pieces and is prized by collectors.
Q: What is the fabric like? A: It is crafted from silk with a smooth, lightweight hand and a red contrast border. Silk gives a soft drape and a subtle sheen, making it comfortable to wear year‑round.
Q: How should I clean a vintage silk scarf? A: For best results, use a trusted specialist dry cleaner. If you prefer to wash at home, gently hand wash in cool water with a pH‑neutral silk detergent, avoid wringing, roll in a towel to remove excess water, and dry flat away from direct sunlight. Use a low‑heat iron on the reverse or a steamer at a safe distance. Do not tumble dry.
Q: Will rain, fragrance, or lotions affect the silk? A: Yes—silk can show watermarks and may experience colour transfer if damp. Keep the scarf away from rain and oils; if it gets wet, blot (do not rub) and allow it to dry completely before wearing against light colours.
Q: How should I store it? A: Store flat or loosely rolled in a breathable sleeve with acid‑free tissue. Keep it away from direct light to prevent fading, and avoid contact with rough surfaces or jewellery that could snag the fibres.
Q: Is the 80 cm size unisex and how can I style it? A: Absolutely. Wear it as a neckerchief, bandana, headband, ponytail wrap, wrist tie, or as a bag accent. The 80 cm format is especially comfortable for neat neck knots and head wraps.
Q: What does “Very Good. Light trace of use” mean? A: It indicates gentle signs of wear consistent with careful use—such as minor creasing or faint marks—without major defects. Please review the photos for exact details.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This piece is delivered without extras. Everything that comes with the item is listed under the product information on this page; if a branded box or dust bag is not listed, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate Dior scarves? A: Our experts perform multi‑point checks of silk quality, print clarity and alignment, hand‑rolled hems, maker’s marks, and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of every item and can provide additional details or images on request.
