INFO
ALL SALES ARE FINAL
Flat measurements are posted on every listing, we recommend comparing these numbers with a garment of your own to ensure a good fit.
Each piece is vintage and has lived a whole life before arriving to you, we do many repairs in the showroom however imperfections are the joy of wearing vintage. Major flaws will be noted.
If you are unable to simply enjoy our presence as a vintage & book shop, refrain from reaching out. We will not reply to non customers, unrelated inquiries or soliciting.
