An effortless choice for weekend brunches, gallery visits, or a relaxed day at the office, the Medium Chloé Marcie brings bohemian polish to everyday looks. Its perforated beige leather and brown trim feel at home from city strolls to dinner, offering refined ease while carrying your daily essentials.
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 typically fits inside the Chloé Marcie Medium? A: With approximate dimensions of 34 × 27 × 12 cm, it comfortably holds a long wallet, phone, sunglasses case, keys, a small cosmetics pouch, a compact umbrella and a 500 ml water bottle. Capacity depends on how you pack; please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: Will it fit a 13-inch laptop or A4 documents? A: A slim 13-inch laptop or A4 folder can fit horizontally, but the curved profile and zip opening may limit bulkier devices or binders. Use a protective sleeve, as the bag is not padded for electronics.
Q: Can this piece be worn crossbody? A: It includes a detachable shoulder strap with an approximate 43 cm drop on this item. On most heights it wears as a long shoulder; as a crossbody it will sit higher than typical. Crossbody suitability depends on your height and preference—measuring your ideal drop against 43 cm is recommended.
Q: Is the Marcie line still in production, and when was it introduced? A: The Marcie debuted in 2009 and remains part of Chloé’s current line-up in various shapes and sizes. Seasonal versions and materials are updated regularly.
Q: Is the Marcie Medium considered heavy? A: The Marcie is crafted from substantial leather and hardware, so it feels medium-weight for its size. Exact weight varies by leather and year; we can provide an on-scale weight for this specific piece on request.
Q: How should I care for the perforated leather on this bag? A: Dust gently with a soft brush or dry microfibre cloth, taking care around the perforations. For deeper cleaning, apply a small amount of leather-safe cleaner to a cloth and dab lightly—avoid saturating the holes. Allow to air-dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Store stuffed to support the shape in a breathable dust bag and avoid harsh chemicals, baby wipes, or excessive water.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate Chloé bags? A: Every item is vetted via multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, heat stamps, and serial/date coding, with expert tools and secondary verification where needed. For Chloé specifically, we look for correct logo details (including the accent on the é), crisp embossing, quality hardware, and an internal leather tab with serial information consistent with brand formats. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this piece, it includes the dust bag and the detachable shoulder strap. If an item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: Where is this bag made? A: The label states Italy.
Q: What are the closure and interior details of this version? A: This piece features a top zip closure, gold-toned hardware and a pink leather-lined interior with one internal zip pocket, as described on this page.
