On this page you will find guides for sizing clothing and rings...
CLOTHING SIZE GUIDE:
All our garments are listed in Australian sizes.
As there is no universal sizing guide for clothing and sizes vary from one manufacturer to another, be sure to check the measurements.
An easy way to do this is to compare the measurements we have provided for you against those of a garment you already own.
All our measurements are taken with the garment laying on a flat surface.
We provide a measurement that is taken straight across the front of the garment.
Double this measurement when comparing it to the chart below.
As we sell Brand New and Vintage Clothing, we have converted all sizes into the table above to give you the right indication of the size.
As vintage clothing was sized differently from modern day clothing, we have provided an estimate of the modern day sizing.
Please note this is an estimate and it is based on the chart above.
HOW TO MAKE AN ACCURATE MEASUREMENT:
TO MEASURE BUST:
On Garment: Lay flat and measure straight across from underarm to underarm. Double this measurement when comparing to the chart.
On Body: Measure around from arm pit to arm pit across the fullest part of your bust.
TO MEASURE WAIST:
On Garment: Lay flat and measure straight across the waistband. If there is no waistband measure across the smallest part of the waist.
On Body for Dresses: Measure around the smallest part of your waistline and be sure to keep the measuring tape straight.
On Body for Pants, Shorts & Skirt: Measure around the part of the waist you want the garment to sit. Be sure to keep your forefinger between your body and the measuring tape.
TO MEASURE HIPS:
On Garment: Lay flat and measure straight across the largest part of the hips. Double this measurement when comparing to the chart.
On Body: Stand with your feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips while keeping the measuring tape straight.
TO MEASURE THE RISE (CROTCH):
On Garment: Lay flat and measure from the bottom of the crotch seem to the top of the waist.
TO MEASURE LENGTH:
On Garment: Lay flat and measure from the top of the shoulder to the bottom of the hem.
TO MEASURE SLEEVE LENGTH:
On Garment: Lay flat and measure from the shoulder seem to the end of the sleeve.
RING SIZE GUIDE:
All our rings are measured in US sizes. This is generally the universal sizing guide used for rings.
If you don't know what your ring size is, the easiest way to find out is by comparing a ring you already own to the life size chart below.
You can do this by holding your own ring up to the screen or by printing out the chart and comparing them.
Your own ring should fit tightly around the outside of the circle in the chart. Think of the circle as your finger.
Alternatively, measure your own ring across the hollow part of the inside and compare it to the measurements below.
