Such a versatile piece of fashion history that can be worn in so many ways.

Unsure About Sizing?

We understand that vintage sizes often don't correlate to today's sizing and so we measure every item by hand, for your convenience. This ensures less returns, meaning less wasted time and postage expense for you and reduced CO2 emissions from shipping the item back and forth.
