SIZING --------------------------------------------
There really is no industry standard when it comes to sizing.
With this in mind, matching our measurements with your own is
the best way to find a great-fitting vintage coat.
Chest
measurements are always taken across the fullest part of your torso.
Arm
measurements are taken on the outside, from shoulder seam to wrist
(or natural shoulder, if there is no seam).
Length
for a coat means shoulder to hem.
Shoulder
measurements are taken from shoulder seam to shoulder seam.
The #1 secret
to looking great is making sure your clothes fit you perfectly.
We are happy to provide any extra measurements that we haven't already
provided.

CONDITION ----------------------------------------
Vintage also means
that a normal amount of wear is to be expected. In fact, it shouldn’t
look brand new. After all, what would vintage be without a little
history. Buttons, snaps, collars, sleeves, and hems should all show
some sign of being loved and worn.
Scivago™ only
buys coats that have been well cared for. We take great pride in
delivering pieces that are clean and free of smells, stains and
moth damage.
Each piece has its
original designer label and we never claim that a piece is by a
certain designer if the label is missing.
Vintage clothing offers
something that simply doesn’t exist today. It allows you to
stand out in a crowd because what you’re wearing is one-of-a-kind!
The following will
help you get an idea of any flaws that a garment may have.
Mint
= Mint condition with no flaws at all. There won't be any stains,
tears or discoloration.
Excellent
= Will show some very minor wear.
Great
= Shows some expected wear for its age, like slight softening from
being washed or some all-over fading.
Good
= There may be a shadow stain. Great for photo shoots or reconstruction
but not for general wear.
