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 head size does size 56 fit? A: Size 56 generally corresponds to a head circumference of about 56 cm, or roughly 22 inches. The best way to check is to measure around your head just above the eyebrows and around the fullest part at the back.
Q: How should this leather beret fit? A: It should feel secure and comfortable rather than tight. A leather beret is usually a little less forgiving than a wool one, so it should sit neatly without slipping or pinching.
Q: What are the key design details of this beret? A: This vintage Christian Dior beret features black leather, a gold-tone 'DIOR' logo, and an interior with gold embroidered bee and 'CD' logo details.
Q: Is this beret made in France? A: Yes. The country of origin label states France.
Q: What condition is this piece in? A: It is listed in very good vintage condition with light traces of use. The interior is also in very good condition with light trace of use, and the metal detail remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: No additional product information is included with this piece.
Q: How should I care for a vintage leather beret? A: Gently wipe the surface with a soft dry cloth, or a barely damp cloth if needed, and let it dry naturally. Avoid soaking it, using harsh cleaners, exposing it to heavy rain, or placing it near direct heat or strong sunlight. Store it somewhere breathable and avoid crushing the shape.
Q: Will the leather soften or stretch with wear? A: Leather can relax slightly and mould gently to your head over time, but it should not be expected to change size dramatically. If you usually need more room than 56 cm, this beret may feel too small.
Q: How do you authenticate this Christian Dior beret? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is checked by experts before sale. For a piece like this, important details include the quality of the leather, construction, branding, logo work, and the consistency of signature Dior elements such as the gold-tone logo and interior bee and CD embroidery.
