Product Description
This vintage Céline Triomphe belt in black patent leather with gold-tone hardware is in very good condition. Ideal for adding a polished finish to tailoring, dresses or denim, the iconic buckle brings timeless elegance to both daytime and evening looks.
Q: What does size 80 mean on this belt? A: Céline belt sizing is measured in centimetres to the middle hole, so size 80 is intended for an approximately 80 cm waist point. The best fit depends on whether you plan to wear it at the natural waist or lower on the hips.
Q: How wide is this belt? A: This belt is 2.5 cm wide, which is the medium Triomphe format. It is a versatile width that usually works well with denim belt loops while still looking refined with tailoring.
Q: Can this belt be worn with jeans as well as dresses or tailoring? A: Yes. The 2.5 cm width is one of the most versatile formats for everyday styling and is commonly chosen for jeans, trousers and dresses alike. The key is to measure where you want the belt to sit before buying, as the fit will differ between high-waisted and hip styling.

Q: How wide is this belt? A: This belt is 2.5 cm wide, which is the medium Triomphe format. It is a versatile width that usually works well with denim belt loops while still looking refined with tailoring.
Q: Is the Triomphe buckle subtle or more of a statement? A: The Triomphe buckle is recognisable but relatively understated compared with larger logo belts. In black patent leather with gold-tone hardware, it gives a polished finish without overwhelming an outfit.
Q: Can this belt be worn with jeans as well as dresses or tailoring? A: Yes. The 2.5 cm width is one of the most versatile formats for everyday styling and is commonly chosen for jeans, trousers and dresses alike. The key is to measure where you want the belt to sit before buying, as the fit will differ between high-waisted and hip styling.
Q: Does patent leather crease or mark easily? A: Patent leather has a glossy coated finish, so it can show creasing, fingerprints and surface marks more readily than matte leather. On this vintage piece, creases at the leather and light scratches on the hardware are already noted in the condition report.
Q: What condition is this belt in? A: It is listed in very good condition. The exterior shows creases to the leather, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: How should I care for this belt? A: Wipe it gently with a soft dry or very lightly damp cloth after wear, then store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Because patent leather can pick up colour transfer, it is best to avoid prolonged contact with dark denim, rough surfaces and non-breathable storage.
Q: Where was this belt made? A: The country of origin label states Italy.
Q: What is included with this item? A: No additional items are included with this belt. Please rely on the product information on this page for what is and is not present.
Q: How do you authenticate it? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is vetted by in-house experts using checks such as materials, construction, hardware, stamping and overall consistency. We stand behind the authenticity of the pieces we sell.
