Perfect for cocktail hours, gallery openings or a chic dinner date, this vintage Gucci Medium GG Marmont in black leather with red heart and lip appliqués brings playful romance to your look. In very good condition, its sliding chain strap and beige, compartmented interior keep essentials elegant and organised from dusk to dawn.
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 Gucci Medium GG Marmont Heart Bag? A: With dimensions of approximately 27 × 17 × 4 cm, this bag has a relatively slim profile designed for essentials. It comfortably holds a large smartphone (such as an iPhone Pro Max), a cardholder or compact wallet, keys, lipstick and a small mirror. Due to the depth and internal dividers, bulky continental wallets may be a tight fit. Please refer to the specific Measurements on this page or contact us for a tailored fit check.
Q: Is the chain strap adjustable? Can I wear it crossbody? A: Yes, the sliding chain strap is versatile. It can be worn doubled for a shorter shoulder carry (approx. 29 cm drop) or extended as a single chain for a longer shoulder or crossbody look (approx. 55 cm drop). This allows you to transition easily from day to evening wear.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The bag features a flap top with a GG push-lock closure, offering good security for your belongings while remaining easy to access securely. We recommend keeping the mechanism clean and free of debris to maintain smooth operation.
Q: What is the interior layout? A: The interior is lined in beige fabric and is divided into three internal compartments. This organised layout is practical for separating your phone or keys from other small essentials, helping to prevent scratches.
Q: What makes this specific design unique? A: This special edition piece is crafted from black leather and embellished with red heart and lip appliqués, a signature of Gucci's playful, romantic aesthetic under Alessandro Michele. It is finished with antique gold-toned hardware, making it a distinctive collector's item compared to the standard Marmont models.
Q: How should I care for the leather and appliqués? A: To preserve the condition of the leather and the unique patches, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, moisture and heat. Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth if needed. When not in use, store the bag upright in a dust bag, lightly stuffed to maintain its shape, and ensure the chain does not rest heavily on the leather to prevent impressions.
Q: Where are the brand markings located? A: Authentic Gucci bags typically feature a leather tab inside stamped with 'Gucci Made in Italy' and a serial number on the reverse side. Inspecting these stamps and the quality of the hardware is part of our rigorous authentication process.
Q: What accessories are included with this bag? A: Any accessories included with this specific item (such as a dust bag, box or care cards) are listed in the “Accessories” section on this page. If this field notes “no accessories”, then the item is sold as the bag alone.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, serial numbers and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
