The Essential Vest

I emailed my measurements over because I needed to know what size to buy and it fit me PERFECTLY. I’m so excited to combo this with T shirts for a more casual look and dress shirts when I need to be fancy :> the colour is beautiful!

I am SO glad that I went ahead and bought this vest once it came out! It is SO stylish and makes me feel great in my own skin. I bought it with the essential trouser in the same color, so I have a perfect outfit to bring out whenever I want to feel a bit more snazzy. I bought this in Large since that's my size in the essential button up - it is a little harder to button the vest than it was to button the shirt, but otherwise fits well & looks great unbuttoned.

The colors - the fit - the swagger feel when I wear these vests are unmatched by anyone else’s product.

The color of the vest is right for the costume I'm creating. One thing: when I shopped for this vest, I had no idea your strategy was to sew clothing to be worn by both men and women. The character I'm portraying happens to be a man, but I'm a senior citizen, typically over weight, American woman. I found that the vest had been designed to be worn by a man, most definitely. If it had been sewn to be worn by a woman of my size, there would be darts to accommodate my natural body shape.

It is perfect. I need this in more colors (e.g., dark green, sage/grey, chestnut or walnut brown, navy, etc).
