Condition

The majority of items in our vintage and retro catalogue are used items and subsequently, not all items will be perfect.

Sizing

All our garments are hand measured flat. Please note the measurements listed on each product page to get a better idea of how an item fits. 

Please bear in mind that sizing labels on vintage garments and standardised measurements of clothing have changed over the decades and also vary between countries. So the size on the label as this might not be an accurate representation of the true size.

We advise that you measure yourself the same way (in cm).If possible, it is also helpful to measure a similar garment you know fits well to compare proportions.
