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 Christian Dior 80 Oblique Silk Scarf? A: It is a vintage square scarf crafted from silk, showcasing Dior’s iconic Oblique monogram in blue and white with a contrasting red border. A timeless accessory that adds a refined touch to any look.
Q: What are the dimensions of this scarf? A: This piece measures approximately 80 x 80 cm. As with many vintage scarves featuring hand‑rolled hems, minor variations of a centimetre or so can occur.
Q: How can I style an 80 cm square scarf? A: This versatile size works beautifully tied at the neck (classic knot, French knot or triangle fold), as a chic headscarf or hair tie, wrapped around the wrist, or styled on a handbag handle to personalise and protect it. You can also fold it into a slim belt or tuck it into a blazer neckline for a pop of colour.
Q: Is the scarf double‑sided or reversible? A: Silk squares are typically printed to be visible on both sides, but this is not a reversible design with different prints on each face. You can fold it to highlight either the red border or the Oblique motif depending on your preference.
Q: Is this item unisex? A: Yes. The geometric Oblique pattern and classic colour palette make it a sophisticated, gender‑neutral accessory suitable for a wide range of styles.
Q: What is it made from and how should I care for it? A: It is crafted from silk. We recommend professional dry cleaning only. Keep it away from water, rain, perfumes and hairspray to prevent spotting, and store it flat or gently rolled in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the colours.
Q: How should I store it to avoid creases? A: Store the scarf flat in tissue or loosely rolled; avoid leaving it tightly knotted for long periods, which can create set creases. If light creasing occurs, let it rest flat—avoid home ironing unless done by a professional experienced with silk.
Q: Does this listing include the original box or any accessories? A: No. This item is listed as having no accessories. Please refer to the photos and the Accessories section for exactly what is included.
Q: Will it have a serial number or date code? A: Christian Dior silk scarves typically do not feature serial numbers or date codes. Authentic pieces usually have a brand and care label; details and placement can vary by era. A Retro Tale conducts rigorous multi‑point authentication on every item.
Q: What is the condition of this scarf? A: It is described as Very Good with a light trace of use. Please review the detailed photos and condition notes to understand the exact state of the piece.
