The waistcoat – a chic and effortless way to be stylish and refined.
Women’s waistcoats – A popular new trend for 2025 that is making a strong showing in this summer’s fashion as a wardrobe staple. Waistcoats (button-down vests) can be dressed up or down. The current versatile waistcoats can be worn in traditional tailored styles or worn with relaxed and contemporary outfits. Current waistcoat styles have variety, from fitted and structured to oversized and relaxed. They come in solid, classic colors and multiple pattern choices in many fabric choices from linen to tweed. Waistcoats come tailored to wear to work or an event, knitted for a causal look, and longline for a more contemporary feel. They can be worn with a crisp buttoned-down shirt underneath, or on their own. They can be paired with matching trousers or skirts for work. They can spruce up a pair of jeans and a T-shirt, the options are endless.
To shop for a waistcoat, it is helpful to think how you are likely to wear it. Do you want slim-fitting or loose, what fabric and color, long or short? What type of neck cut do you prefer – V neck, crew neck, square neck? For example, I want mine to be fitted but able to have a camisole, thin T-shirt or a body suit underneath and still look good.
