WANTED – Suits or pretty much any clothing item in SMALLER SIZE

[Broccoli]

I am of smaller size (35" chest, 28" waist, 14" neck. 180cm long so no shorter sizes work.) and I am primarily looking for suits, odd jackets and trousers. The closer to the 1930s the better.

Contact me with any offer, suggestion or tip you might have.

Thank you in advance.

Those would be an inch to tight and two inches to short. It's a shame though.

Is this long enough for you?

I've seen that one too... 3 inches too short.
But thanks!

This overcoat is listed as a size 36-38 (although I would put it closer to a 38). I might fit you if worn over a three piece suit. But it's not cheap!

It will be worth regularly looking at the Savvyrow website since they get some very good vintage clothes, in all sizes. There aren't many smaller sized items on the site at the moment but you may be lucky.

Thanks a lot for that tip! Too bad the overcoat was sold... Just the model I like. I will add the website to my list.

That must have sold in the space between me posting the link and you reading it! Definitely keep checking their website, they get some very nice stuff.

Dinner suit. The advert doesn't seem to include the chest size, but the waist is small.

 

[Broccoli]

That shoulder size must be of by a bit... I am putting in a bid, it looks nice, maybe it can be altered. Waist is good, lenght too and that is promising. You really help me a lot here!

EDIT: lost the auction lol

Sorry that you didn't win it. They'll be more in the future.

 

[Broccoli]

That's just what I thought when I put in a lower bid. It is the suits that are more rare for me to find.

Have you tried this company: http://vintagesuits.de/index.html
They are based in Berlin and have large numbers of 1930s suits. I think you would need to send them an email to see what they have in your size.

This links to the german suits thread - there is plenty of discussion of that company on the thread - see page 8 for background on how they collected the suits.

You really help me a lot

Yeah, kinda like your own personal shopper.

Well, I don't find much in my own size - It's better not to waste the time I spend looking.

 

[Broccoli]

I too spend quite some time looking online but I find it rare to see my sizes. Meanwhile others try not to find the small ones. It is great to have a helpful and sharing community like this.
