A note about buying vintage from Overdress Vintage: What sets us apart from other vintage companies is our glamourous and fashionable finds and Jen’s eye – it cant be copied.  Jen finds the best most fabulous vintage and will do all she can to help you with your choices.  Everything in the shop is clean and pristine to meet our high quality standards as close to as you would shopping for new.  Vintage items have previously been worn in most cases a  minimum 35 years old and perfection should not be expected from a garment from another era.   



Size Guide

We take pride in providing accurate measurements with an approximation of modern UK with an International equivalent size chart below sizing to help you when choosing  your purchase and  will fit properly  as often vintage sizes differ significantly from modern sizes. 

It is also very helpful if you are aware of your own particular dimensions. If you're not sure, you may easily approximate them by measuring an item of clothes from your own wardrobe that fits well and is laid flat.

Below is how we measure for TOPS, DRESSES, JUMPSUITS, JACKETS, AND OUTERWEAR) 

Bust - Measured by doubling the width from armpit to armpit across the front of the garment.

Waist - Measured by doubling the width from one side of the waistband to the other.

Sleeve - Measured from the shoulder to the cuff. Shoulder - Measured from shoulder seam to shoulder seam.

Length - Measured from the collar or top mid of the shoulder to the garment's hem.

We measure all our items flat and use the guide below
