Please note that the size is taken from the actual measurements, not the garment label, due to changes in sizing over the years. All measurements are taken by laying the garment flat and doubling where appropriate. I have suggestions on how best to take your measurements in my policies section.

All of my vintage items will show minor signs of wear, as to be expected with textiles of age. I always strive to be honest when describing their condition and list any significant faults.

I understand that it is often difficult to tell if you're going to like something before you try it on! For this reason, if you are not happy with your item, it doesn't suit, or it doesn't fit I offer full returns – for more details see my policies.
