How do you style a button-front vest?

Layer it over a shirt, tunic or modest dress for a smart sleeveless layer. Buttoned up, it looks neat and office-ready; worn open, it feels more relaxed. Neutral shades such as beige, grey and navy are easy to pair with most pieces.

Which fabric should you choose?

Knit is soft and comfortable for transitional seasons, cachet adds warmth and a more structured shape, and quilted styles make a warm layer for cold days. Choose the fabric to match the season and how you plan to wear it.

A short vest defines the waist over dresses and skirts, while a long one covers the hips and looks balanced with trousers. Browse our long vests or every cut in the main vest collection.
