A made-to-measure waistcoat, in one of the six Dormeuil cloths of the collaboration, matched to the suit or worn as an odd piece.
The waistcoat adds a useful layer, in an air-conditioned office as much as outdoors in winter, and it refines the silhouette: it creates a cleaner line at the sides and shapes the stomach. That is what earns it its place in a business outfit meant to look more distinguished.
Five models: single-breasted with 4 buttons, single-breasted with 5 buttons, notch-lapel with 5 buttons, shawl collar with 6 buttons, double-breasted with peak lapels. The single-breasted is the usual choice; the lapelled, shawl-collar and double-breasted models give the waistcoat a stronger presence.
Like the rest of the collaboration, it is cut to your measurements, confirmed on a fitting garment at your appointment in store.
