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 are the dimensions and how can I carry it? A: Approximate measurements are 25 cm (H) × 33 cm (W) × 9 cm (D) with a handle drop of 8 cm and a detachable shoulder strap with a 47 cm drop. Carry by the top handle for a polished look or use the strap for hands-free wear.
Q: What typically fits inside this Elsie? A: Daily essentials such as a smartphone, long wallet, keys, small make-up pouch and sunglasses fit comfortably. It also accommodates a tablet up to about 11 inches. Most 13-inch laptops are not recommended due to the structured flap and depth.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody? A: The detachable strap has an approx. 47 cm drop, which is ideal for shoulder carry and gives a higher crossbody fit on some builds. Please compare the drop to your preferred wearing height before purchase.
Q: What closure does the Elsie use? A: It features Chloé’s signature Elsie turn-lock with a floral-inspired motif. Twist to open and close; it is quick to operate while keeping the flap securely shut when aligned.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything that comes with the bag is listed in the product information on this page. This piece is delivered with no additional items.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The interior is lined in beige canvas and includes one internal zip pocket for valuables, with an open main compartment for larger items.
Q: What is the condition of this vintage piece? A: Overall good preloved condition. There is visible cracking on parts of the leather trim and strap, the lining shows some stains, and the gold-tone hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review all photos for the best view of wear.
Q: Where was this particular bag made? A: Hungary. Production location can vary across Chloé collections and seasons; the origin stated here refers to this specific piece.
Q: How should I care for the grained leather and hardware? A: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use; keep away from moisture, oils and colour transfer from dark fabrics. Condition sparingly with a leather cream suitable for smooth/grained calf leather, testing first on a hidden area. Store stuffed to maintain shape, in a breathable dust bag, and avoid prolonged sun or heat exposure to protect the leather and gold-tone finish.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by in-house experts with over 10 years’ experience, using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware and brand markings. We also use a trusted third-party authentication tool for added assurance.
