From weekday meetings to dinner plans, this black leather Céline Triomphe belt in size 85 brings polished definition to trousers, skirts or a blazer. The gold-toned Triomphe buckle adds refined shine, while the adjustable fit makes it ideal for smart-casual brunches, gallery openings, or elevating weekend denim.
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: How does the Céline belt sizing work for a size 85? A: Céline sizes belts in centimetres. A size 85 measures about 85 cm from the buckle to the centre hole and is roughly 33.5 inches. For best results, measure a belt you already wear to the hole you use most and compare. If you plan to wear it on the hips rather than at the waist, you may need a larger size.
Q: What is the width of this belt and will it fit standard belt loops? A: This piece has a slim profile at approximately 2 cm wide, which fits easily through most trouser and jeans belt loops and gives a refined, understated look. If you prefer a bolder statement, other Triomphe belts also come in wider profiles such as around 2.5 cm and 3 cm.
Q: Is this belt reversible or is the buckle removable? A: This item is a single-sided black leather belt with a fixed Triomphe buckle and is not designed to be reversible or interchangeable. Céline also offers specific reversible Triomphe models; this piece is not one of those.
Q: What materials and hardware does it feature? A: Smooth black leather with a gold-toned Triomphe buckle. On current Céline belts the buckle is typically brass with a gold finish, giving a polished look while remaining durable for daily wear.
Q: How adjustable is it and how many holes does it have? A: Triomphe belts usually feature five fastening holes to fine-tune the fit. A professional cobbler can add an extra hole if needed, but we recommend measuring carefully before altering a vintage piece.
Q: What is included with this item? A: As listed in the product information on this page, this piece comes with a box and a dust bag. Everything included with the belt is always stated under product information.
Q: What is the condition of this belt? A: Good pre-owned condition with creasing on the leather and wear around the fastening holes. The hardware is shiny with scratches, and the interior shows a light trace of use. Please review the photos for a close look at these details.
Q: How should I care for the leather and buckle? A: Keep the belt away from water, oils, perfume and prolonged heat or direct light. If it gets wet, dab gently with a soft, light-coloured cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid abrasive surfaces, store flat or loosely rolled in the dust bag, and wipe the buckle with a soft cloth to reduce fingerprints.
Q: Can this size 85 work for both high-waist and mid-rise styling? A: Yes—measure where you plan to wear it. For a high-waist fit, your measurement may align closely with 85 cm; for a mid-rise or hip fit you might prefer sizing up. Comparing to a belt you own is the most reliable method.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our in-house specialists using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, stamps and hardware. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional details on request.
