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 material of this scarf? A: It is an approximately 80 × 80 cm square crafted from pure silk. The brown and cream Trotter motif gives it a smooth drape and a classic vintage look.
Q: What is the Dior Trotter pattern? A: Trotter (often also called Oblique) is Dior’s signature monogram, originally designed in the late 1960s and revived prominently in the 1990s. It remains one of the house’s most recognisable designs.
Q: What is the condition of this piece? A: Very Good. It shows a light trace of use consistent with gentle wear, as noted in the product condition details on this page.
Q: What is included with this listing? A: This listing is for the scarf only. Everything included is always listed in the product information section. Original box, tags or other items are not included unless explicitly stated there.
Q: Is the 80 cm square suitable for all genders? A: Yes. An 80 cm silk square is a versatile, unisex size that works as a neckerchief, bandana, headscarf, wrist wrap or to adorn a bag handle.
Q: How should I care for a vintage silk scarf? A: For best results, use a trusted specialist dry cleaner experienced with silk. Avoid contact with rain, perfume, oils and hair products, which can cause watermarks or colour transfer. If you choose to spot clean at home, test for colourfastness first and use cool water with a silk-safe detergent, then blot and air dry away from direct sunlight.
Q: How should I store it to keep it in shape? A: Store flat or gently roll with acid‑free tissue in a breathable dust bag, away from moisture and direct light. Avoid hanging by a point or using wire hangers, which can distort the fabric or create creases.
Q: Can I steam or iron the scarf? A: Yes—lightly steam from a short distance or iron on the reverse on a low silk setting using a pressing cloth. Do not press the rolled edges flat, as this can damage their hand‑finished look.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house experts via multi‑point checks of silk quality, print clarity, labels and signatures, and hand‑rolled hems and stitching. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional photos or details on request.
