This vest earns its spot in the rotation by doing what most layering pieces don't: it adds structure without weight. The notch collar gives it the polish of a blazer, but the open, sleeveless silhouette keeps it comfortable and easy to move in. It's a sharp layer that works over everything from fitted knits to button-downs.
- Notch collar with a tailored lapel shape that frames the neckline and sits flat against whatever's worn underneath
- Welt pockets sit flush against the front panel, keeping the silhouette clean and streamlined
- Sleeveless construction makes it a practical warm-weather layer or a midlayer option when a full jacket feels like too much
- Structured shoulders hold their shape without padding, giving a polished line through the upper body
- Hits at the high hip, long enough to look considered but short enough to pair well with higher-rise pants and skirts
