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 Versace size 75 mean and what waist will it fit? A: Versace belts are sized in centimetres. A size 75 indicates roughly 75 cm to the fastening point, which typically suits around a 70–80 cm waist depending on where you wear it (about 27.5–31.5 inches). For the best result, measure through your trouser belt loops and compare to 75 cm rather than relying only on clothing size.
Q: What is the belt width and will it fit standard trouser loops? A: This Medusa belt is approximately 3 cm (30 mm) wide, a versatile width designed to fit most standard trouser belt loops and to style easily with denim or tailoring.
Q: Is this belt reversible? A: No. With its stud and medallion embellishments and single-finish leather, this vintage design is intended to be worn one way only.
Q: Can I add extra holes or have the belt shortened? A: Yes—professionals can add holes or shorten most leather belts. Many belts are shortened from the buckle end if the construction allows; if the buckle is stitched rather than screwed/clamped, a cobbler can still advise on options. We recommend using a reputable cobbler rather than DIY to maintain the finish.
Q: How do I check the fit before buying? A: Thread a soft tape through the belt loops where you’ll wear it (waist or hips). Note that measurement and aim to fasten a belt at its middle hole. If your measurement is close to 75 cm, this size should work; if you plan to wear it lower on the hips, you may need more length.
Q: How should I care for the leather and the mixed gold/silver hardware? A: Wipe leather with a soft, dry cloth after wear. For deeper cleans, use a small amount of a pH‑neutral leather cleaner, then condition sparingly; avoid soaking or heat drying. For the Medusa buckle and studs, gently buff with a dry microfibre cloth. If using metal polish, mask the surrounding leather first and apply with a cotton bud only to the metal to avoid staining.
Q: How is authenticity verified for Versace belts, especially vintage pieces? A: Modern Versace items may feature digital security (NFC/QR) on labels; vintage pieces may predate these tags. At A Retro Tale, every item is checked by experts using materials, stamps, construction and hardware details; additional documentation can be provided on request.
Q: What comes with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. This piece is listed without additional items—please review the product information and images for full details.
Q: Where was it made? A: Italy.
Q: What is the condition like in person? A: Very good vintage condition with light traces of use. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches consistent with careful wear—please see the photos and condition notes for specifics.
