A Note on Vintage
Every Piece Has Lived a Life
All items at Alva Morgaine are authentic vintage treasures, garments and objects that have existed, traveled through time, and carried stories long before reaching you.
Each piece is personally and meticulously curated for its character, rarity, and enduring beauty.
We document every item with the utmost care so you can collect with confidence.
Condition of Vintage Pieces
• Most items are in excellent or near-pristine condition, especially considering their age.
• Any subtle signs of time, minor imperfections, delicate patina, or gentle wear are always clearly disclosed in the description and visible in the photographs.
We believe these nuances are not flaws, but part of what makes vintage profoundly unique.
Color Disclaimer
Colors may vary slightly in real life due to several factors:
We photograph items using natural or professional lighting, which can influence how tones appear.
Screen settings and devices may render shades differently.
If you would like additional photos, videos, or closer detail on texture or color, we are always happy to assist you.
Measurements & Fit
• Detailed measurements are provided with every listing.
• Should you need further guidance — from fit advice to garment comparison — we invite you to contact us. Thoughtful collecting begins with clarity.
The Authenticity of Vintage
Vintage means rare.
Vintage means irreplaceable.
Vintage means no two pieces are ever truly alike.
When you acquire a vintage piece, you are not simply purchasing an item, you are becoming the next guardian of its story.
And now, its journey continues with you.
Size Chart Guide
Vintage sizing often differs from modern standards. For the most accurate fit, we recommend comparing the garment measurements with a similar piece you already own.
| INT | IT | EU / DE | FR | UK | US |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 38 | 34 | 36 | 6 | 2 |
| S | 40 | 36 | 38 | 8 | 4 |

| L | 44 | 40 | 42 | 12 | 8 |
| XL | 46 | 42 | 44 | 14 | 10 |
