Made for cocktail receptions, date nights and theatre outings, this vintage Gucci GG Marmont Small in black velvet adds refined glamour to evening ensembles and transitions seamlessly from pre-dinner drinks to after-hours events.
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 typically fits inside the GG Marmont Small Bag? A: With the measurements on this page (approx. 21 × 14 × 6 cm), it comfortably carries daily essentials such as a smartphone, a compact wallet or cardholder, keys and one or two small cosmetics. Capacity varies with how you pack; please refer to Measurements and photos for the best guidance.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody as well as on the shoulder? A: Yes. The sliding chain-and-leather strap offers two drops listed in the product information: approximately 30 cm for shoulder wear and approximately 56 cm for crossbody. On most frames, the crossbody setting sits near hip level.
Q: Is the chain strap removable or adjustable? A: The strap is designed to slide and be worn two ways (doubled for a shorter shoulder drop or elongated for crossbody), but it is not detachable and does not have belt-style adjustments.
Q: How delicate is the velvet compared with leather for regular use? A: Velvet is a refined material and more delicate than leather. It can show rubbing at corners and seams and is sensitive to moisture and rough surfaces. Treat it as an occasion or light‑use piece, avoiding rain and abrasion to preserve the pile and shape.
Q: Can the black velvet transfer colour to clothing, or pick up dye from denim? A: Textile‑to‑textile colour transfer can occur in either direction, especially with new or dark denim and when damp. Keep the bag dry and avoid prolonged friction against heavily dyed garments to minimise risk.
Q: How should I care for and store the velvet exterior? A: After use, gently wipe away dust with a soft, dry cloth. Store the bag lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from direct light, heat and humidity. Keep the chain folded so it does not press into the velvet. For canvas, velvet and suede, specialist care is recommended; avoid home solvents and protect from rain.
Q: What is the lining like and how do I look after it? A: This piece features a pink satin lining with a small internal pocket. Shake out debris and use a clean, dry cloth to lift loose dust. Avoid aggressive stain removers on satin; seek a professional cleaner for set‑in marks.
Q: What closure and internal organisation does it have? A: It has a flap closure with the signature Double G hardware and a simple interior with one slip pocket, ideal for keeping a cardholder or travel card handy.
Q: Does this model have a serial number or date code? A: Gucci uses a heat‑stamped serial number on the back of the interior leather tag rather than a traditional date code. There is no public database for lookups. Some newer Gucci items feature an NFC authenticity tag, but earlier pieces may not.
Q: Is this item authentic and what is included? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is checked by our in‑house experts using multi‑point authentication. Everything included with this listing is stated in the product information on this page; if an item such as a dust bag or card is not listed there, it is not included.
