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 “90” refer to for this Saint Laurent scarf? A: It indicates the classic square size of approximately 90 × 90 cm (about 35.4 × 35.4 inches), a versatile format for styling around the neck, hair, or as an accessory on a bag.
Q: Is it 100% silk and how does it feel when worn? A: Yes, this style is a pure silk square. Silk offers a smooth hand, natural sheen and elegant drape, making it comfortable and breathable year‑round.
Q: How can I style a 90 cm silk scarf day to day? A: Popular options include a neckerchief knot, classic bias fold and wrap, headband or bandana, a belt through trouser loops, or wrapped around a bag handle. For evening, try a French knot at the neck or fold into a slim bandeau to accent a blazer.
Q: Can a 90 × 90 silk scarf be worn as a top? A: Yes. Fold on the bias and tie as a halter, bandeau or asymmetrical wrap. Always secure with discreet double knots and consider fashion tape or a strapless bra for support. Avoid stretching the silk; re‑tie rather than pulling tight.
Q: How should I clean a vintage silk scarf? A: We recommend professional dry cleaning for vintage silk. If you choose gentle home care, test colourfastness on a hidden corner, hand wash briefly in cool water with silk‑safe detergent, do not wring or soak, then lay flat on a towel to dry away from direct sunlight.
Q: What is the best way to remove creases and folds? A: Steaming is safest. Hang the scarf and steam lightly at a short distance. If you must iron, use the lowest silk setting, place a clean cotton pressing cloth between iron and fabric, and press quickly without dragging. Avoid pressing rolled hems completely flat to preserve their shape.
Q: Will the colours bleed or transfer? A: High‑quality silks are generally colourfast, but vivid vintage prints can release dye if they get wet or are washed incorrectly. Keep away from rain, perfume and deodorant; if washing at home, test first, wash quickly in cool water, and dry flat out of sunlight. Store separated from light‑coloured items to prevent transfer.
Q: Do Saint Laurent vintage scarves have hand‑rolled edges? A: Many vintage Yves Saint Laurent silk squares were finished with hand‑rolled, hand‑stitched hems. Please refer to our photos for the exact edge finish on this piece.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This listing is for the scarf only. The Accessories section on this page lists everything included; if an item such as a box or dust bag is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this scarf? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale undergoes a rigorous, multi‑point inspection by our in‑house experts, assessing silk quality, print execution, labels and stitching. We own 100% of our inventory and also offer an optional third‑party digital certificate for added assurance—contact us if you’d like to add this service.
