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 size is this Miu Miu headband, and will it fit me? A: Most Miu Miu headbands are designed in one size to fit most adults. For this piece, please refer to the Measurements on this page (approx. 15 × 13 cm). The metal band has a gentle flex for comfort but is not adjustable.
Q: Is it comfortable to wear for several hours? A: Comfort varies by head shape and sensitivity. To reduce pressure, position the band slightly behind the hairline and avoid placing the tips directly on the most sensitive area behind the ears. Take short breaks during long events, and consider adding small silicone or foam pads to the tips if you are prone to pressure discomfort.
Q: How do I care for the faux pearls and rhinestones? A: Follow the “last on, first off” rule. Avoid hairspray, perfume, lotions and heat tools contacting the embellishments. After wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Do not soak or submerge; avoid ultrasonic cleaners. For light build-up, very lightly dampen a cloth and spot-clean the metal only, keeping moisture away from the stone settings. Allow to air-dry fully before storing.
Q: Can I wear it in the rain or during workouts? A: It is not water- or sweat-resistant. Moisture can weaken adhesives, cloud rhinestones and damage faux pearl coatings. Remove the headband in wet weather and during exercise.
Q: A stone seems loose or one has fallen out—what should I do? A: Stop wearing the piece to prevent further loss. Keep any detached stones and consult a professional jeweller or specialist restorer for re-setting. Avoid DIY superglue, which can cloud stones and damage finishes.
Q: How can I keep a headband from slipping? A: Place the headband slightly forward, then slide it back to catch grip. Add two discreet bobby pins crossed over the band behind the ears, or mist a little dry shampoo/texturising spray where it sits. For very smooth hair, a small strip of clear, non-slip tape or a silicone grip liner inside the tips can help.
Q: Will the embellishments snag my hair or clothing? A: The settings are smooth, but rhinestone prongs can catch on delicate knits. Take care when dressing, avoid brushing the band against fine knitwear, and store it separately to prevent tangles and friction.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section. For this listing, no additional items are noted beyond the headband itself.
Q: Is this piece authentic and vintage? A: Yes. A Retro Tale specialises in authentic luxury vintage. Every item is thoroughly vetted by our in‑house experts. This headband is described as vintage and in very good condition with light signs of use as noted on the page.
Q: Where was it made? A: The country of origin label reads Italy.
