New green double breasted morning waistcoat size 40 4056
A vintage quality linen morning waistcoat copied from a 1960's design taken from a three piece. We make these to vintage standards, so there is no glue or ' interfusing' like everyone else is doing, instead a fine canvas layer. In keeping with this the waistcoat features a continuous neckband ( tradition dictates that a neckband signifies an outerwear garment and so removing your tailcoat is not technically 'wrong' in sartorial rules. The adjuster buckle is original NOS 1920's pronged type like all old waistcoats had and the buttons have a proper shank on them to improve the look and ease of fastening. In addition this one has Marcella slips.
In keeping with the vintage buying experience we have made all items unique. This one is made form a pastel sage green linen with a bemberg lining and back.
Measurements
Length - 22 ( measured from nape )**
Armpit to armpit - 20.5
Fit - slim 40
Please note that this one has some strange creasing to the front and will need at least a good press to get it flat again, Not as noticeable under a tailcoat of course and they should fall out long term.
** This is a regular fit, designed to cover the waistband ( all around) of a trouser worn at the naval on a man of 5'8-5'11. This will generally be easier with traditional height trouser, modern hip height trousers won't work.
They may have small traces of tailors chalk but this will come out with a sponge or in the first dry clean.
