FAQs - Handmade Collection


Can I get a plus size / very small size / custom order for a specific item?

Yes! If you don’t see your size often enough in my shop, feel free to contact me for a custom order. Just email me or send me a DM on Instagram. I only take a few custom orders per month and reserve these slots for people who need a specific size or adjustment.

Do you ship worldwide?

Yes! We ship worldwide using the "go green" method to ship your item climate-friendly.

How long does shipping usually take?

After you place your order, it takes up to 7 days to send your package. Within Germany, it then takes 2-5 days to arrive (internationally 5-10 days).

When will item XY be back in stock?

Our goal as a brand is to reduce waste from the fast fashion industry, which is why we only use second-hand/pre-loved garments. This means there is no guarantee that an item will be back in stock. If we find something similar on the second-hand market, we will always try to bring back the most loved styles!

I saw item XY on your Instagram but can't find it on your website?

Items posted on Instagram might be sold out or not released yet. Send me a DM for more information.

Can I pre-order?

No, due to high demand we unfortunately do not offer pre-orders so that everyone has the same fair chance.

"I don't know if the corset will fit me"?

Our corset patterns are made by us, but the sizes are based on a European size chart. To be sure if a corset would fit before purchase, please refer to our fitting guide in our Instagram highlights, click here!

Where do you source your garments?

All our items are handpicked from local second-hand stores in Germany.

Can I return or exchange my order?

For more information on our return policy, click here. As our garments are unique and made from second-hand materials, we do not offer direct exchanges. However, you can return unworn items within the return period. If you have any issues with your purchase, please contact us and we will do our best to find a solution.

How do I care for my vintageBambi clothing?

As our garments are made from second-hand materials, we recommend gentle care. Wash your clothing at low temperatures and avoid the dryer to prolong the life of your pieces.
