Sizing varies greatly by manufacturer and different decades were measured differently from today's sizing standards. We recommend comparing the measurements of the vintage item to an item of clothing you already own. We are always happy to provide additional measurements or answer any questions you may have.

✦ Please remember that vintage does mean "previously loved" and many items are 20+ years old. But hey, that's what makes it awesome! Unless "Like New" or “New Vintage” (e.g. dead-stock) is indicated, most items have some slight wear that typically only adds to the softness, character or charm of the piece.
