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 fabric of this scarf? A: It is a square scarf measuring approximately 80 × 80 cm and crafted in 100% silk with a multicolour geometric print and Yves Saint Laurent logo detail.
Q: How can I style an 80 cm square silk scarf? A: This size works well as a neckerchief (folded into a triangle and tied at the front or side), a head bandana, a ponytail tie or hair ribbon, around the wrist, or knotted to a bag handle for a pop of colour.
Q: Is 80 cm suitable to wear as a headscarf? A: Yes, 80 × 80 cm is suitable for most bandana and classic headscarf wraps. If you want fuller coverage or larger knots, a 90 × 90 cm square offers more volume, but 80 cm is versatile for everyday styles.
Q: How should I clean and care for a silk scarf? A: Always follow the care label if present. For vintage silk or when unsure, professional dry cleaning is the safest option. If hand washing, use cool water with a silk-friendly detergent, do not wring, roll in a towel to remove excess water, dry flat away from direct sunlight, and steam on low from the reverse side.
Q: How should I store the scarf to keep it in great condition? A: Store flat or loosely rolled in a breathable pouch or drawer, away from moisture and direct light. Avoid clips or pins that can leave impressions, and ensure the scarf is clean before storage to discourage moths.
Q: What are typical authenticity cues on a vintage Saint Laurent scarf? A: Look for hand-rolled, finely hand-stitched edges, a crisp and well-registered print, and a clean Yves Saint Laurent signature or logo placement. Pattern alignment should be neat, and the silk should feel supple and high quality.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this item? A: Every piece is rigorously examined by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, edges, prints, and brand markings. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and are happy to share further details on request.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. For this piece, there are no additional items listed.
Q: What is the condition of this scarf? A: Very Good, with light traces of use consistent with careful wear. Please review the photos for the best representation of condition.
Q: Will the colours look exactly the same in person? A: We aim for colour-accurate photos, but hues can vary slightly depending on your screen settings and lighting. If you need extra confirmation, our team can provide additional images or details.
