Your experience with online Vintage Clothing sites?
SaraBearaa asked:
I really enjoy shopping at Value Village and Slavation Army and finding great vintage pieces there for cheap. But lately i’ve been looking at these cool online clothing stores selling one-of-a kind vintage pieces.
Because the clothing is one of a kind it doesn’t come in a variety of sizes, so it’s pinned to the models so you don’t really know how it looks.
I wanted to know, what your experiences with these websites are, and with shopping online in general has been. Have you always been content with your order and the quality? Thanks!

Sara,
Take a look at my wife’s site (Rusty Zipper Vintage Clothing)
Women’s:
Men’s:
The way she sizes items are “sized to the wearer”, meaning if a dress is listed as 38bust 32waist, if those are your actual measurements, it should fit you with the appropriate ease. Her small team has worked together for years and they’re very consistent in their sizing & being seamstresses, they know how to take into account the cut in determining the appropriate amount of ease. Hope this makes sense.. If it doesn’t feel free to give them a call & they’d be glad to help you out with measurements & making sure what you buy will fit.
Best of all, if you do a search on the site and choose “My Size” from the pull-down menu, you will be prompted to enter in your exact size range (Bust, Waist, Hip, Pant Length) & until you change it, everything you view will be filtered to show just items in your size.
If something doesn’t work out (for any reason), you’ve got 15 days from the day you receive it to drop it in the mail for a full refund (excluding shipping).
She has over 20,000 items + a ton of backstock that is overflowing now from our shop building into our garage.. so please come shop!
Also, check out the wholesale site – over 1,000 items – anyone can buy, and many are under $10:
Loads of men’s stuff too.
I also like Acevintage.com – some really nice 40′s and 50′s pieces.
Good luck!

We offer free shipping every day, everywhere around the world.
Avant Gaudy is one of the very few vintage stores online that accepts returns with no questions asked, within 14 days after receiving your items.
