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.
Feel free to email us with specific questions about specific measurements that we may not have included that you need to know in order to feel confident about your purchase. If you have a particularly long torso, short legs, long arms, etc.. we can help you determine whether or not a garment will work for your body.SaveSaveSave
This is a wonderful vintage ensemble by Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel in the 1980's.
This knit suit ensemble includes four pieces. It has a long cardigan sweater with four pockets and CC brass buttons on the cuffs and up the front, a skirt with reverse finished seams and a back zipper, a long sleeved orange-yellow top that zips in the back at the neck, and a color block scarf.
The cardigan and skirt are in a grayish brown knit with flecks of orange and yellow. The sweater is trimmed with the same marigold color as the top and scarf. The top closes with a hook and eye and back zipper and has nice seam details. There are two small holes near the arm seam. The skirt has pockets with the same CC logo buttons.
The skirt hits just below the knee, and the cardigan hits just below the hips. Made in France.
The skirt, sweater and scarf are all in excellent condition. The marigold top is in good condition, with two small pin holes near the arm seam.
We estimate this lovely outfit to fit a modern day size 4 but please review all of the provided measurements.
