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 this Christian Dior headband made from? A: This vintage piece features a black and white houndstooth textile exterior, black leather lining and a silver-tone logo stamp on the interior.
Q: Is this headband one size? A: Dior headbands of this style are typically designed as one-size pieces. Fit can still vary depending on head shape, hair thickness and how you prefer to wear it, so we recommend comparing the listed measurements with a headband you already own. The measurements shown for this piece are approximately 15 cm high and 8 cm wide.
Q: How can I help the headband stay in place? A: Structured headbands usually sit best just behind the hairline. If your hair is very silky, a little texture at the roots or a couple of discreet pins behind the ears can help improve grip. Avoid spraying products directly onto the textile or leather.
Q: What condition is it in? A: It is listed in very good condition with light traces of use, which is consistent with a well-kept vintage piece. Please review the images carefully for the closest view of its current appearance.
Q: Does it come with a box or any other items? A: No additional items are included with this headband. Everything included with the purchase is listed under the product information, so if an item is not mentioned there, it is not included.
Q: Where was it made? A: The country of origin label states Italy.
Q: How should I care for a vintage textile and leather headband? A: Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. After wear, gently wipe the lining with a soft dry cloth and avoid moisture, perfume, hairspray and heavy rubbing on the textile. Do not machine wash or soak it.
Q: How do you authenticate Dior headbands? A: At A Retro Tale, every item is checked by in-house experts. For Dior pieces, authentication typically focuses on the quality of the materials, stitching, lining, logo details, overall construction and whether the finishing is consistent with the house’s standards.
