Measuring & Fit Guide

We offer a large selection of designers and manufacturers that span the 20th and early 21st century. Sizing varies greatly, so we have outlined our measuring and size estimating process.

The best way to know if a vintage item will fit you is to take a garment that fits you well, similar to the one you are interested in purchasing, and measure it the way we measure ours.

We lay all garments flat and measure as follows*:

DRESSES		PANTS
BUST - under arm to under arm across the front and then double that measurement.		Measure the WAISTBAND, widest part of the HIPS, widest part of the THIGH on one leg and width of the CUFF, then double those measurements
WAIST - find the smallest part of the garment if there isn't an obvious seam for the waist and measure across and then double that measurement.		LENGTH - Measure from the top of the waistband to the bottom of the cuff along the side seam.
HIPS - Find the largest part of the hip area and measure flat, then double that measurement.		RISE - Measure from the crotch to the top of the waistband.
LENGTH - from the nape of the neck or the top of the shoulders, depending on the style of garment. We will measure to the waist when applicable, so that you can determine if it will fit your torso, and then a waist down measurement.		INSEAM - Measure from the crotch to the bottom of the cuff along the inside seam.
SLEEVES - measure from the top of the shoulder seam to the end of the sleeve. When we think that the arm opening is particularly small, we will provide that measurement as well.**

*Fabrics with stretch will have some give, we will try to mention the range of measurements that will fit comfortably.

**With dolman sleeves, the size is an estimation based on the waist as the body seamlessly joins the sleeve.

50s Pink Vintage Ceil Chapman Dress

You can twirl until your heart's content in this outstanding 1950s vintage pink Ceil Chapman dress in cotton with cream lace trim. The Ceil trademark ruched bodice with full skirt (shown with crinoline - not included). Back metal zipper and "boning" in the bodice. The only real issue to mention is that the lace needs to be tacked down in a few places and to keep in mind that the arm opening is particularly small so be sure to check that measurement! Wonderful, collectible piece from a coveted mid century vintage designer.
