FRUIT Vintage is not responsible for any loss, delay, theft or damage of the parcel once despatched. Once an item is given to the shipping carrier the customer accepts ALL risk & liability for loss, delay, theft or damage

For all international orders (shipped outside of Australia) we deliver duty unpaid (DDU). Any additional taxes or duties incurred on the shipment upon arrival into a country are the responsibility of the buyer.

Unfortunately customs may sometimes hold an international parcel. We are unable to predict this process and it may take several working days for parcels to be released. Such delays are out of our control and can't be accounted for in our shipping time estimates.

All our product descriptions include the specific measurements for that item (in both cm and Inches). This is the most reliable way to determine vintage clothing sizing.

Measurements are taken with the garment laying flat.

The sizes printed on vintage garments tags very often do not correlate to any modern international size guidelines.

To help make the vintage shopping process easier we provide a ‘Fits like’ size guide on each garment. There is more information on our 'Fits Like' guide bellow. This is strictly our estimate of the product’s size in modern terms, this is measured in:
XS, S, M or L.

XS: AU 6-8 | US 0-2 | UK 6-8 | FR 34-36 | IT 38-40 | JP 5-7

S: AU 8-10 | US 2-4 | UK 8-10 | FR 36-38 | IT 40-42 | JP 7-9

M: AU 10-12 | US 4-6 | UK 10-12 | FR 38-40 | IT 42-44 | JP 9-11

L: AU 12-14 | US 6-8 | UK 12-14 | FR 40-42 | IT 44-46 | JP 11-13

One of the easiest ways to gauge if an item will be the right size for you is to compare it's measurements with an existing piece of clothing from your wardrobe.

To get the dimensions select a similar item in your wardrobe that fits you well. Lay it flat on the ground and measure straight across bust, waist and hips. Then simply compare these measurements with those on the FRUIT Vintage garment description.

We take the majority of our garment measurements from the front, with the item laying flat (unless otherwise specified in the item description).

If measurements are for the circumference of the garment (all the way around) then you need to double the measurement taken from the front.
