New yellow double breasted morning waistcoat size 42 4259
A vintage quality linen morning waistcoat copied from a 1930's bespoke item. 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. This one also features Marcella cotton slips.
In keeping with the vintage buying experience we have made all items unique. This is made of linen with bemberg lining and back.

** 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 can always be shortened of course at the shoulder seam.
Please be aware that our linen waistcoats, unless ironed professionally will always show creasing and texture. These new waistcoats are all handmade individually and have not been cleaned, they may have small traces of tailors chalk but this will come out with a sponge or in the first dry clean.
