The shop
A small rail on West 25th Street
New York Vintage Inc keeps a deliberately narrow rail. We buy layering pieces first — the cardigan you keep in a tote, the half-zip that works over a shirt, the kimono that turns a plain dress into an outfit.
Everything listed here is a piece we would put on the floor at 117 W 25th St. If a size runs small or a knit is sheerer than the photo suggests, that goes in the description rather than in the fine print.

Fabric notes and fit guides
How to Wear a Kimono Cardigan Without It Wearing You
Open-front kimonos add length and movement, but they need the right proportion underneath. Four combinations that work.
Choosing Loungewear That Holds Its Shape
Waistbands that stretch out, pockets that gape and hems that twist. What to look for in joggers and wide-leg lounge…
What Fibre Content Actually Tells You About a Garment
Cotton, viscose, polyester and acrylic behave differently in warmth, drape and durability. A plain-language guide to the label.
Before you order
Sizing, shipping and returns
How do I pick a size?
Every listing carries the maker's own measurement chart in inches. Measure a garment you already own flat across the chest and match that number rather than guessing from S/M/L, which varies a lot between brands.
Do you ship outside New York?
Yes. We ship to all 50 US states. Orders over $75 ship free; below that it is a flat $4.99.
Can I return something that does not fit?
You have 30 days from delivery and the piece needs to be unworn with its tags on. Return postage for a change of mind or a sizing swap is paid by you; if we sent the wrong item or it arrived faulty, we cover the return shipping.
Are the knits machine washable?
It depends on the fibre blend, which is listed on each product page. Where the maker specifies hand wash or cold gentle cycle, we repeat that instruction rather than generalising.
Can I try things on in the shop?
Yes — 117 W 25th St, Monday to Saturday between 12:00 and 17:00. Call ahead on +1 212-647-1107 if you want a specific piece held.
When will my order arrive?
We pack within 1-2 business days and USPS or UPS takes 3-7 business days after that, so 4-9 business days from order in most cases.

Notes from the rail
We write when a restock lands or a fit runs unusual. A few emails a season, never a daily blast.
