SIZING GUIDE

Vintage clothes’ vary greatly in sizes due to a large number of clothing brands which have their own unique sizing guides. The fit of each vintage treasure will depend on the style, cut and fabrics used.

In order to be as accurate as possible with our sizing information and provide you with all the details before purchasing an item, we measure all of our vintage treasures.

To be sure an item fits perfectly, we recommend that you measure one of your items at home that you like the fit of, following our method.

We also estimate the fit of an item – whether the item is oversized, true to size or tight. Based on the measurements, the fit of the item and our long-years of experience of vintage clothing we create a size recommendation “Our Recommended size” between XXS and 3XL.
