Q: What are the measurements and what does a 6 cm width mean? A: The approximate measurements are 75 x 6 cm (L x W). At 6 cm, this is a slim tie suited to modern tailoring, narrow lapels and small–medium collar spreads. Please compare the listed length to a tie you own to ensure your preferred knot and drop.
Q: Which knots work best with a slim silk tie? A: The Four‑in‑Hand and Half Windsor are popular choices. The Four‑in‑Hand gives a neat, slightly asymmetric knot ideal for a 6 cm blade; the Half Windsor offers a fuller look. A Full Windsor may appear bulky with slim widths.
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.

Delivery & Returns
Q: What is the Saint Laurent Silk Tie? A: It’s a vintage Saint Laurent necktie crafted in silk with a light blue and beige patterned design. Details can vary by production year—please review our photos and description for the exact characteristics of this piece.
Q: What are the measurements and what does a 6 cm width mean? A: The approximate measurements are 75 x 6 cm (L x W). At 6 cm, this is a slim tie suited to modern tailoring, narrow lapels and small–medium collar spreads. Please compare the listed length to a tie you own to ensure your preferred knot and drop.
Q: Is it a self‑tie and how is it constructed? A: Saint Laurent silk ties are typically classic self‑tie designs (not clip‑on) with a keeper loop and branded tipping. Please check our photos to confirm the exact construction of this item.
Q: Which knots work best with a slim silk tie? A: The Four‑in‑Hand and Half Windsor are popular choices. The Four‑in‑Hand gives a neat, slightly asymmetric knot ideal for a 6 cm blade; the Half Windsor offers a fuller look. A Full Windsor may appear bulky with slim widths.
Q: How should I care for and clean a silk tie? A: Avoid machine washing or soaking. Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth—do not rub. For deeper cleaning, use professional dry cleaning by a specialist familiar with silk ties. To remove light creases, use gentle steam from a short distance or press on the reverse with a cool iron and a pressing cloth, avoiding the edges. Store rolled or hung, away from moisture, oils and direct sunlight.
Q: Are there any condition notes I should be aware of? A: This pre‑owned tie is in good condition with some discolouration and a pulled thread. Please review our close‑up photos for placement and extent. Do not tug or cut the pulled thread—seek a professional repair if desired.
Q: Does it have a serial number or date code? A: Designer ties generally do not have serial numbers or date codes. Authentic Saint Laurent ties typically feature a brand label and a care/composition tag. A Retro Tale authenticates every item through rigorous multi‑point checks beyond labels alone.
Q: What is included—does it come with a box or dust bag? A: This listing indicates “no accessories.” If an accessory isn’t mentioned or shown in our photos, it is not included.
Q: Where is it made and what is the fabric? A: The fabric is silk. Country‑of‑origin labels can vary or be absent on vintage pieces; please check our photos and description for any origin stamp on this specific tie.
Q: Is it unisex and how can I style it? A: Yes—silk ties are widely worn by all genders. Pair the light blue and beige pattern with navy, grey, camel or cream tailoring, or style it smart‑casually with knitwear and an Oxford shirt for a refined look.
