The Perk Up! System

We do our very best to accurately date, carefully describe and measure with detail each item for sale.

All of our stock is guaranteed Grade A - unless otherwise specified – and in that rare occurence we clean, mend and repair as required.

We check every vintage item with scrutiny when in our care so you only receive the very best.   Please understand that most vintage clothing has been worn and will often not be in perfect ‘as new’ condition – terms from our descriptive chart below will accurately describe every piece.

Vintage Sizing

Our vintage garments are measured in inches / cm with every dimension considered so it is advisable that you measure yourself accordingly as modern day sizing differs so much to clothing in the vintage eras.

If you need help in how to take your measurements or have any questions regarding vintage clothing, we will be more than happy to help.

We provide the following measurements per vintage clothing garment:

• Bust (from under each arm and across)
• Hips
• Waist (at the fullest portion)
• Full length of item
• Length of corset/skirt if appropriate
• and any other available dimensions

Vintage Clothing Condition

We provide a detailed description of each vintage garment with details about the condition. This is a chart of the typical grading system for vintage clothing.

Vintage Clothing Grades

• IMMACULATE : Could almost be New!
• EXCELLENT : No problems at all, fabulous condition.
• VERY GOOD : May have been worn a little but nothing very noticeable and still very wearable.
• GOOD : May show signs of wear or need a little TLC.

If you have any questions, please email us. We can post extra photos if necessary.
