“Architecturally this is an amazing piece, worked side-to-side and designed to sit lightly on the hips. If you are not weasel-waisted, the severe, dramatic long vertical and diagonal lines are a very flattering look (note the inclusion of sizes up to a finished 57.25”/145cm, doubtless for this very reason). This vest just begs to accessorize all kinds of outfits, but seems to have an especial affinity for tunics (as shown) and anything worn over leggings or tights.” - Patternfish description
