Instantly Tailored: The Vest
Vests are back with a Vengence
Now that we've talked about key items in a capsule wardrobe, it might be relatively easy for you to figure out, off the top of your head, what items it would encompass. Items such as loose-fit denim pants, a soft and classic cropped sweater, and even a neutral colored elongated button-up shirt would be solid key pieces in anyone's capsule wardrobe. Items in a capsule wardrobe can be dressed up or down, can be played around with for multiples occasions, yet provide the ultimate factor: comfort.
It's rare for people to think of something as tailored and formal, like a vest, would be something you would consider for a capsule wardrobe. Do vests say 'quiet luxury'? Do they say 'classic and understated'?
The answer is yes!
Introducing Val Mila's Latest Feature Item: The Vest
First thing is first: Think about the textiles and textures of your capsule wardrobe. A stiff polyester vest would probably stick out like a sore thumb or be really difficult to pair with if you are trying to create multiple wardrobe ideas.
Thankfully, our Calico Linen Buttoned Up Vest is a linen and viscose blend that is soft, and comfortable, but most importantly still holds structure. You should want your vest to hold it's shape to help create a streamline silhouette and not be saggy and drabby. Our goal is to create a classic line from the top of your head to your ankles.
Want to make things easy and create a more uniform look? You're in luck! Our vest comes with a linen drawstring pant with the same comfortable feel, but tailored line. A more poorly crafter outfit would start to sag or wrinkle very easily. That does not help if you are trying to build up your capsule wardrobe with quality pieces that can be used over and over again and hold true after many tosses in the laundry.
