Size Guide.
Because vintage sizes are different from modern sizes it is important to refer to this sizing guide to ensure that your garment will fit.
We provide detailed measurements of the garment with an approximate equivalent to modern sizes but please check the dimensions carefully against one of your own garments for the correct fit.
To measure your garment lay it flat and measure as shown below and double this.
Please note that the dimensions shown are the actual garment dimensions and not necessarily the dimensions of the body that it will fit. For shirts and jackets for instance, you need to allow some room for movement (e.g. a shirt with chest dimensions of 42 inches will fit a 38 inch chest – **see conversion tables below).
To measure your garment lay it flat and measure as shown below and double this.
