Fit & Size Guide
We understand the importance of feeling confident, but fully understand that buying online can be a little daunting, especially if you’re used to shopping on the high street and have not bought vintage inspired shapes before.
All of our designs are cut to ensure a perfect fit and we rigorously check, measure and test on a variety of body shapes and sizes. The most important rule is don’t assume - measure!
How To Measure?
We cut to a traditional vintage inspired shape, so it’s really important that you check your exact body measurements rather than assuming. Think about your bust, hip and waist measurements before assuming an item will fit.

Follow these easy steps to ensure you make the right selection:
To ensure accuracy measure against your body rather than over your clothes.
(1) Bust: Measure under the arms at the fullest part around the bust horizontally
(2) Waist: Measure around the natural waistline
(3) Hips: With your feet together measure around fullest part
(4) Arm Length: Measure from the top of your shoulder down to bone on your wrist
(5) Inside leg: In bare feet take the measurement from the top of the inside leg and measure down the inside leg to the floor
(6) Skirt Length: Measure from your natural waistline down to your knee.
Remember, styles vary, so check your measurements carefully.

Follow these easy steps to ensure you make the right selection:
Measure close to your body, not over your clothes, for accurate results.
(1) Chest: Keep it simple, measure around the fullest part, tape snug under the arms.
(2) Waist: Measure around the natural waistline
(3) Inside Leg: Measure from the crotch down to where your trousers usually rest on your shoes.
(4) Body Length: For the right jacket length, measure from the centre back of your neck to the hemline. Remember, styles vary, so check those measurements carefully
(5) Total Overarm: Stand up straight, arm bent at 90 degrees. Start at the nape of your neck, measure across to your shoulder. Continue down to your elbow. Finally, measure from your elbow to the bone in your wrist.
