Sizing

There are so many factors that affect the size of vintage clothing - age, style, and where it's from! Because of this, all of our products are hand-measured based on the standard clothing size charts below. If you have any other questions about specific items, don't be afraid to shoot us a DM on insta, contact us here, or email us at hello@zoehify.com!

Disclaimer: We acknowledge that gender is not limited to the binary construct that we have been taught to believe. However, the fashion industry for the longest time has categorised clothing into clothing for men, and clothing for women. Accordingly, our size charts will be based on this standardisation. Nevertheless, we want you to know that we believe that our products are for everyone and anyone to wear and love. <3

Notes:

We measure the actual size of the garment. For tops, this measurement is likely to be bigger than your actual body measurement, since many garments are not designed to fit tightly to your body (unless obviously otherwise).

For bottoms, we measure the waistband all the way around, which should match your actual waist measurement. 

To measure yourself:

Chest/bust: Wrap the tape around the widest part of your chest or bust. This is usually just under the armpit. Measure all the way around in inches. 
The garment will probably measure more than your chest measurement. For example, if the garment measures 2 inches more than your body size, it will fit you quite tightly. However, if for example the garment measures 8 inches more than your body size, it will be a loose fit.
Alternatively, find a similar top you own that fits the way you like. Lay it flat and measure straight across under the armpit. Double this amount will give you the full measurement. If the garment you want to buy has the same measurement, it will fit you in a similar way.

Waist: Wrap the tape around your body at the point at which you normally wear your jeans or trousers. The garment you want to buy should have the same waist measurement.
Alternatively, find a pair of bottoms that fit you nicely. Lay it flat and measure straight across the top. Double this amount to get the full waist measurement. The garment you want to buy should have the same waist measurement.

Hopefully, this little drawing will make things a little clearer for you:
