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 Gucci Rhinestone Headband listed here? A: It’s a vintage Gucci elasticated headband featuring the House’s green‑and‑red Web stripe adorned with sparkling rhinestones. It’s crafted in Italy and designed as a fashion statement rather than a sports accessory. Please review our photos for exact detailing.
Q: What are the dimensions and how does it fit? A: The band is approximately 5 cm wide and measures around 24.5 cm across when laid flat in its relaxed state. Because it’s elasticated, it stretches to accommodate most adult head sizes. Note that some Gucci Web headbands have been produced in sizes (e.g., 56/57 cm), but this particular listing is One Size—please compare our measurements to a headband you own for the best fit.
Q: Is it unisex? A: Yes. Gucci’s elastic Web headbands are frequently worn by all genders. The classic stripe and crystal finish make it a versatile styling piece across different looks and hair types.
Q: Will the rhinestones snag hair or come loose with wear? A: The crystals are set onto the fabric (often sewn or prong‑set). To minimise snags, place the band over smooth hair, avoid rough brushing against the crystal rows, and store it separately. With normal use, occasional loosening can happen on any crystal‑embellished accessory; a professional accessories repair service or jeweller can re‑seat a stone if needed.
Q: Can I wear it for workouts or in the rain? A: We don’t recommend it. Moisture, sweat, hairspray or perfume can dull rhinestones and may weaken certain settings or adhesives. Keep the headband dry and avoid high‑sweat activities; it’s best suited to everyday or occasion styling rather than sport.
Q: How should I clean and care for it? A: Do not soak or machine‑wash. Gently dust the crystals with a soft, dry brush or microfibre cloth. If needed, lightly spot‑clean the fabric around the embellishment with a barely damp cloth and blot dry immediately—avoid getting moisture behind the stones. Keep away from hairspray, perfume and direct heat. Store flat in a cool, dry place, away from abrasive items.
Q: Does this pre‑owned item come with a box or accessories? A: No. This listing is marked “no accessories.” Everything included is shown in the photos and stated in the Accessories section.
Q: Where is it made? A: Made in Italy, consistent with Gucci’s hair accessories from this line. Labels and construction details are shown in our images for your review.
Q: How do I style it so it stays put without discomfort? A: Place the band slightly behind the hairline and angle it so the elastic sits under the occipital bone at the back of your head. For very silky hair, mist a touch of texture spray where the elastic sits or secure with discreet bobby pins. If you experience pressure, shift the position or take brief breaks—over‑tight placement can cause slipping or headaches.
Q: How is authenticity ensured for this item? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our experts, including checks of materials, stitching, Web stripe colours, labels and overall construction. For peace of mind, please examine our detailed photos and condition notes; we stand by the authenticity of every item we sell.
