SIZE GUIDE
Sizing vintage clothing is tricky business. Not only do we have garments from all over the world, where various sizing charts are used - we also have garments as old as the 1940’s and a size MEDIUM back then does not always reflect a modern size MEDIUM.
To ensure that you get all the information you need we provide all the measurements of each garment. Please see images below on how to understand our measurements. Please note that all measurements are made when the garment is laid flat.
When a garment lacks a size tag we do an estimation based on our own measurements (see chart below). And to make things even easier for all you international shoppers, we have also included an international size chart at the bottom of the page.
Don’t forget that if you do buy a garment and you are not happy with the way it fits we do offer a returns policy (see Shipping & Returns for more info).
Happy shopping!
