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 is the Dior Trotter pattern? A: Trotter is another name for Dior’s Oblique monogram, a repeating slanted DIOR motif created by Marc Bohan in 1967. It is one of the House’s most recognisable signatures and a timeless classic.
Q: Is this the classic 90 cm square? A: Please rely on the measurements on this page. This piece measures approximately 80 × 80 cm. Vintage Dior squares were produced in different sizes, including 80 and 90 cm, and this size still ties beautifully as a neckerchief, headscarf or bag accent.
Q: What can I wear this size of square scarf with? A: Fold on the diagonal for a chic bandana; roll and knot for a neckerchief; tie as a headband; thread through belt loops as a belt; wrap around a bag handle; or style as a wrist wrap. A simple square knot, bias fold, or loose bow are effortless options for everyday wear.
Q: What is the fabric and feel? A: The scarf is crafted in silk with a smooth handle and elegant drape. Many Dior squares are made in silk twill for its softness and ability to hold crisp knots. As with many vintage pieces, care or fibre labels may vary or be absent—please see photos and description for details.
Q: Are the edges hand‑rolled? A: Many Dior silk scarves feature hand‑rolled, hand‑stitched hems, though some vintage styles also appear with flat stitched or lightly fringed edges. Please check our close‑up photos to confirm the finish on this piece and avoid pressing rolled edges flat when caring for it.
Q: How should I care for a vintage silk scarf? A: Professional dry cleaning is the safest option. If hand‑washing, use cool water and a silk‑friendly detergent, keep soak time short, avoid wringing, then roll in a towel and lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight. Store flat or loosely rolled in a breathable bag to prevent creasing and colour fade.
Q: How do I remove creases safely? A: Lightly steam from a short distance, or use a cool iron on the reverse with a pressing cloth. Do not press directly on the silk and avoid ironing over rolled hems to preserve their shape.
Q: Is this scarf unisex? A: Yes. Classic square silk scarves are a versatile unisex accessory and can be styled in countless ways across wardrobes.
Q: What accessories are included? A: This listing specifies no accessories. Everything included is listed under Accessories; if an item like a box or care booklet is not listed there, it is not included—feel free to contact us for confirmation.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of fabric, print, labels, stitching and finishing. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional photos or details on request.
