MEASURING FOR THE PERFECT SIZING

All items are measured with the item laying flat. Take into account whether the item will stretch or not when determining whether the item will fit you. Fabric content information is always provided in each of our listings to assist you in determining proper fit. Be aware that tag sizes vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. One designer's size 6 is another designer's size 8. Please check not only tag sizes in our listings but the posted measurements as we will always provide those to assist you in determining proper fit. We measure each item as follows:

  • CHEST: From underarm seam to underarm seam across front and then doubled
  • WAIST: From side seam to side seam at the smallest point under chest (at waistline) and then doubled
  • HIPS: From side seam to side seam under waist (approximately 8 inches down from waist) and then doubled
  • LENGTH: From shoulder seam to hem
  • SLEEVE LENGTH: From shoulder seam to sleeve hem
  • SHOULDERS: From shoulder seam to shoulder seam across back
  • RISE: From waistband to inseam
  • INSEAM LENGTH: From inseam to pant hem
  • FLARE: From side seam to side seam across hem and then doubled

CARING FOR YOUR ITEMS

We offer brand new items as well as the highest quality pre-owned and vintage dresses and accessories for sale. We do not launder or dry clean previously owned items as this would result in a much higher cost for you to purchase our items. Please note that all pre-owned items should be cleaned after purchasing and before wear as they may contain signs of previous ownership. If there are any glaring signs of wear, we will always note those in our descriptions; however, an item in need of cleaning is not a flawed item as all pre-owned items should be cleaned by their new owner.
