Product Description
This vintage Christian Dior handkerchief in blue cotton features the iconic Dior Oblique pattern and finished edges. In very good condition with light traces of use, it is a refined choice for adding a polished accent to everyday tailoring, tying at the neck for a chic daytime look, or styling as an elegant detail on a handbag.
Q: What size is this Christian Dior handkerchief? A: This piece measures approximately 45 x 45 cm, making it a compact square style that works well as a pocket square, neck scarf, hair accessory or handbag accent. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact dimensions.
Q: Can this 45 cm size be worn as more than just a handkerchief? A: Yes. A square of this size is especially versatile and is commonly styled in a blazer pocket, tied neatly at the neck, wrapped around a handbag handle or worn in the hair for a vintage-inspired look.

Q: What size is this Christian Dior handkerchief? A: This piece measures approximately 45 x 45 cm, making it a compact square style that works well as a pocket square, neck scarf, hair accessory or handbag accent. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact dimensions.
Q: What is this handkerchief made from? A: It is made from blue cotton and features the Dior Oblique pattern with finished edges. The cotton construction gives it a lighter, softer feel than many silk scarf styles.
Q: Can this 45 cm size be worn as more than just a handkerchief? A: Yes. A square of this size is especially versatile and is commonly styled in a blazer pocket, tied neatly at the neck, wrapped around a handbag handle or worn in the hair for a vintage-inspired look.
Q: What is the Dior Oblique pattern? A: The Dior Oblique motif is one of the House’s signature designs and has been a Dior hallmark since 1969. It gives this vintage piece an instantly recognisable Dior look while remaining easy to style.
Q: What condition is this vintage item in? A: This handkerchief is listed in Very Good Condition with light traces of use. As with most vintage accessories, minor signs of previous wear are normal and form part of its character.
Q: Does this item come with anything else? A: This piece is sold with no accessories. Any included items are shown in the product information, so if something is not listed there, it is not included with the purchase.
Q: How should I care for a vintage cotton Dior handkerchief? A: Vintage cotton should be handled gently. Hand washing in cool water with a mild detergent is usually the safest option, followed by air drying flat. Avoid bleach, harsh rubbing and high heat, as these can affect the fabric, shape and print over time.
Q: Does this item have a serial number or date code? A: No serial number is listed for this piece in the product information. That can be normal for vintage textile accessories, which do not always carry serial markings in the way some leather goods do. As always, A Retro Tale authenticates the items it offers.
