PAYMENT POLICY
Through PayPal, we accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover and eChecks. You
must have a current PayPal account. If you wish to pay by check or money
order, e-mail us first.
PRIVACY
We keep all correspondence confidential and we will not share your
e-mail address or other contact information with any person or
organization. Periodically we send e-mail notices of sales or specials.
If you do not wish to receive such notices, you may opt out of the system.
SHIPPING AND INSURANCE
We ship within the continental United States via the U.S. Postal Service
(USPS) or United Parcel Service (UPS). A flat $5 shipping and handling
fee plus $1 per item will be added to each order at checkout. Generally,
you will receive your order within three days of the date it was
shipped. For faster shipping options, e-mail us first for quotes. For
items that are particularly heavy or bulky, a surcharge has been added
to the price and noted in its description. Orders totaling more than $50
include insurance.
For shipping outside the continental United States or international
orders, e-mail us first for a quote.
RETURN POLICY
E-mail sales@retrowardrobe.com within 24 hours of your order’s
arrival to tell us why you need to return any item. (We extend no credit
if an item doesn’t fit, because in our descriptions we include all
garments’ measurements.)
We will reply within 24 hours. Generally, any item should be on its way
back to us within 24 hours of our response. You pay return shipping and
insurance costs. The item has to be in the same condition in which we
sent it or no credit can be processed.
When we receive a return according to these conditions, we will credit
you for the item minus original shipping costs and a 10% surcharge.
Through PayPal we can issue a direct credit within 7 days.
QUALITY SCALE
We do our best to clean garments. However, vintage clothing by
definition is old and sometimes worn. We describe significant flaws,
tears, missing buttons, wear, and stains that could not be removed or
repaired. Please note these descriptions carefully. We do not issue
refunds for conditions that were disclosed. We attempt to describe
colors in words because monitor representations vary considerably.
E-mail RetroWardrobe first if you have questions about color or
condition, or require more details of any kind.
Ratings are as follows:
Mint:
No flaws, no apparent wear, in close to original condition.
Excellent:
Very good condition with some wear.
Good:
Wearable condition with minor flaws listed.
Fair:
Potentially wearable with drawbacks listed.
SIZES
Sizes of vintage clothing rarely relate to today's sizes, which is why
we include extensive measurements. Any unusual sizes will be noted. We
urge you to pay close attention to all the information we present. You
are responsible for determining whether a garment will fit. E-mail us
first if you need even more measurements. We will not accept the return
of an item that simply doesn't fit. Vintage fashion in some cases is
art, not attire.
We measure garments using this method:
B = Bust size: Tape measures around garment at widest bust area on bodice.
W = Waist size: Smallest area where natural waist would be, or waist
seam on garment.
H = Hip size: Usually measured around body at widest hip area about 6"
below waist. "Free" indicates a wide or gathered skirt that gives
generous room at hips.
Bodice length: From shoulder seam to natural waist unless otherwise noted.
Skirt or pant length: From waist seam or bottom of waistband to hem.
Sleeve length: From highest point of sleeve to sleeve hem, including
cuff if applicable.
Across back: Approximately 4" - 5" below back neck.
Around neck: Usually only on men's garments, measures total size around
inside collar.
Around crown: Total around crown measurement inside hat.
ITEM REQUEST
Searching for that groovy '60s op-art dress? A '70s disco shirt? Need a

ABOUT US
RetroWardrobe is an eclectic enterprise devoted to sharing vintage
clothing and culture. We offer alternatives to today's homogenized
fashion because we like to see people wear apparel that is unique,
individualistic, tailored, lovely, or just eccentric.
Add flair to your life today by drawing on the styles of yesterday!
