Free printable: the Vintage-to-Modern Fit Guide
Vintage for medium and up

Vintage style. Modern fit confidence.

One-of-a-kind vintage, measured by hand and styled into outfits you'll actually wear. Check your numbers, find your piece, and buy it knowing how it measures up.

Sound familiar?

Your size shouldn't be the hardest part of loving vintage.

01

The tag says large. The jacket disagrees.

Sizes have shifted over the decades, so the number on a vintage label tells you almost nothing about today's fit.

02

The listing skips the numbers you need.

No bust, no shoulders, no length. Just a photo, a size and a hope. So you open 40 tabs and still don't know.

03

A bad guess costs you twice.

Plenty of vintage sellers don't take returns. Guess wrong and you're out the money, and the one-of-a-kind piece too.

Good vintage was never only for a size small. You deserve the good stuff too.

Why we started

We measure first, so you don't have to guess.

We love vintage, and we wear medium and up. We know the routine: fall for a piece, hunt for measurements, give up. So every find here is laid flat and measured by hand, with the numbers that actually decide fit.

Then we style it, so you can see how it works with clothes you already own.

How it works

Three steps to vintage that fits.

Takes about three minutes the first time. After that, every piece on the site checks itself against you.

  1. 01

    Know your numbers

    Measure your bust, waist and hips once. The Fit Decoder shows you how, and saves them on your device.

Two ways to shop vintage

Guess and hope, or know before you buy.

Keep guessing

  • Buy by the tag and hope it zips.
  • Pay return shipping, or get stuck with a final sale.
  • Watch the "almost" pieces pile up in the closet.

Shop with your numbers

  • See exactly where a piece has room and where it's snug.
  • Buy the one-of-a-kind piece before someone else does.
  • Wear it the week it arrives, already styled.

Find the piece. Know it fits.
