About Vintage Garment Sizing
- Vintage sizing varies significantly by era and manufacturer, tagged size is archival — not definitive.
- Proportion matters more than tag size, as vintage apparel carries its own geometry.
- All garments are measured flat in inches, using consistent industry method.
(Circumference points are doubled where noted.)
- We recommend comparing measurements to a garment you own and trust.
- Fit depends on desired silhouette.
- Oversized and structured garments will sit differently than modern equivalents.
- Questions are welcome prior to purchase.
