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 this Miu Miu Vitello Shine tote? A: With approximate measurements of 35 × 25 × 17 cm, it comfortably holds everyday essentials such as a 13-inch laptop in a slim sleeve, A4 documents, a long wallet, phone, water bottle, and a small cosmetics pouch. Capacity will vary with how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody, or is it mainly for the shoulder? A: This model has dual rolled top handles (approx. 13 cm drop) and a detachable shoulder strap (approx. 38 cm drop). The strap length suits shoulder carry on most people; it is generally not long enough for true crossbody wear.
Q: How secure is the closure for commuting or travel? A: The bag closes with a magnetic snap. For added security, keep valuables in the interior zip pocket or a separate pouch and carry the bag with the closure engaged when in crowded places.
Q: What is Miu Miu’s Vitello Shine leather? A: Vitello Shine is polished/glazed calfskin that has a soft hand and a gentle lustre. It offers a slightly more resistant surface than untreated smooth leathers while keeping a supple feel and a refined, vintage look.
Q: How does Vitello Shine leather wear over time? A: With normal use, the finish can develop creases and a soft patina. High-friction points like corners and handles may show scuffing or slight discolouration sooner. This piece is graded Very Good with visible scuffing/discolouration on the corners and handles, and light scratches on the hardware, as noted in the Condition section.
Q: Any care tips to keep the shine looking its best? A: Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately; avoid alcohol-based or harsh cleaners. Use a pH-neutral leather cream very sparingly to prevent dulling the glossy finish. Keep away from prolonged sun/heat and moisture, and avoid contact with dark denim or saturated dyes to minimise colour transfer. Store stuffed in a breathable dust bag to maintain shape, and consider a professional leather specialist for deep stains or restoration.
Q: How do I care for the satin lining? A: Spot clean carefully with a mild fabric solution and a soft cloth, testing a discreet area first. Keep pens, liquids and makeup in pouches to prevent marks. Allow the lining to air-dry fully before storing.
Q: Where was this bag made, and is “Made in Turkey” authentic for Miu Miu? A: The origin label reads Turkey. Miu Miu bags are predominantly made in Italy, but certain models and seasons were produced in other countries, including Turkey, under Prada Group standards. A “Made in Turkey” label can be authentic for Miu Miu.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This bag comes with a detachable shoulder strap. Everything included is listed under the Accessories section on this page; if an item such as a dust bag or card is not listed, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this piece? A: Every item is vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks across materials, stitching, hardware, brand stamps and construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.
