No guess zone. Vintage items are each unique and tag sizes can vary widely by decade and label, so we are meticulous when it comes to accurate measurements and assuring a great fit. We also provide a modern size estimate to help. Questions? Need to see it on a body or dressform? Please ask!  

In addition to measuring your body (see guide for tips), it can also be very helpful to compare measurements to a similar item you own and wear.
