I've always had a thing for waistcoats. I find them extremely charming when worn correctly and are versatile enough to be worn on any occasions. Button up and pair with a tuxedo shirt for dinners and night on the town or unbutton them and throw them over a tee for a downtown, street look.
Though in a sea of waistcoats, having one that stands out never hurts. This gorgeous piece will do just that. The most arresting detail is the cut-off pockets. It looks like a regular waistcoat but if you look again, you'll see the seams for the pockets are exposed to give a cut-off effect that raises the cool factor instantly.
The shoulders are made from a different fabric and in itself gives contrast in terms of color shades and texture. The differences are subtle and even the cut-off pockets will be missed by anyone's who is not paying attention but that's the beauty of this piece - It engages on its own stylish terms.
