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 Saint Laurent 125 Cotton And Silk Stole? A: It’s a large square Saint Laurent scarf/stole crafted in a cotton–silk blend with a black-and-white all-over logo and letter print. This piece is vintage and pre-owned; exact details (weave, label style, edge finish) can vary by production year—please review our photos for this specific item.
Q: What are the dimensions? A: The listing shows approximately 125 x 125 cm (W x H). Hand-rolled hems or production tolerances may result in slight variation (about ±1–2 cm). 125 cm is roughly 49.2 inches.
Q: How can I style it and is it unisex? A: Yes—this style is widely worn by all genders. Wear it as a neck scarf, shawl/wrap, headscarf, bandana, belt, bag handle accent, or style it as a halter/bandeau top or light beach cover-up. The generous 125 cm square offers ample coverage for creative ties.
Q: Is the fabric lightweight and suitable for all seasons? A: The cotton–silk blend is soft, breathable and mid‑lightweight—comfortable year‑round as a layering piece. It drapes with a touch more structure than pure silk while remaining smooth against the skin.
Q: How should I care for a cotton–silk blend scarf? A: Professional dry cleaning is recommended. If hand‑washing, use cold water and a silk‑safe detergent, do not soak, avoid wringing or twisting, and dry flat away from sunlight. Press on the reverse with a cool iron and a pressing cloth, avoiding the rolled hem. Keep away from oils, perfumes and rough surfaces to prevent stains and snags. Store flat or loosely rolled.
Q: Will the black-and-white colours bleed or transfer? A: Printed textiles can be sensitive to moisture and friction. Keep the scarf dry, avoid rubbing against light fabrics when damp, and store out of direct sunlight to minimise fading. If spot‑cleaning, test an inconspicuous area first and blot—never scrub.
Q: Does it have a serial number or date code, and how is authenticity verified? A: Saint Laurent scarves typically do not have serial numbers. Authentic pieces usually feature a Saint Laurent signature within the print and/or a brand and care label with composition and country of origin. A Retro Tale authenticates every item via rigorous multi‑point checks of materials, construction, labels and finishing.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Please see the Accessories section for inclusions. This listing indicates no accessories are included. If original packaging (box/dust bag) isn’t shown or mentioned, it is not included.
Q: Where is it made and what labels should I expect? A: Country of origin varies by model and year (commonly Italy or France). Look for a care/composition label indicating the country and fabric content plus a Saint Laurent brand mark. Placement and wording can differ on vintage pieces—refer to our photos.
Q: What is the condition? A: It is in Very Good condition with light traces of use. Please review all photos to assess minor signs of wear and overall appearance before purchase.
