How to Wear Vest: The Joker Piece of Your Wardrobe

The vest is that piece without much functionality when it comes to assembling the look, but every woman needs to have at least one in her wardrobe. The charm it adds to the look, no other piece can do.

Not to mention its versatility, being a piece that can be used in summer and winter, day and night. Of course it depends a lot on the combinations you make and the vest you choose.

For personal and corporate image consultant Marcele Goes, there are versatile vests and not so many. "I find the vest a more difficult piece to transit in several universes, especially when you have a very sporty model," he says. For her, the fabric tailoring vest model is the most adaptable.


The vest models and how to wear them

Model diversity helps every woman find one that fits her style. There are several: tailored vests with tailoring fabric, tailored vests in different patterned or textured fabrics, crochet or knit waistcoats, leather vests with or without fringes, stone vests or chains, are many ?, points out the consultant. Below you will find the main vests and how to use them:

Fabric vest

It is the most versatile model. It can come in many versions and with applications such as stones and sequins. It is easy to combine by having this variety. It goes well with all the wardrobe pieces, from worn over dresses to complement jeans and t-shirt.

The tailoring model is the most popular and looks beautiful on more casual combinations to break the informality of the look. Use it with patterned pieces to create a well-stripped, summery look. "A tailoring vest will ask for a bit more structured and elegant," is the tip Marcele tells.


Jeans vest

The jeans vest is the most youthful of vests and it is with it that you can create the most casual looks. What varies between the jeans vests is their wash and their model: it may be more similar with the denim jacket or with a denim shirt.

For its informality, it is worth betting on combinations with other pieces in jeans, T-shirts and dresses. Also combine with flats and sneakers and create a very young and modern look. For the consultant the jeans vest calls for more stripped textures such as prints and fabrics of more rustic textures.

Fur coat

The fur vest gives you the least chance of wearing it in summer, as it is made of a warmer fabric. For you to have this versatility, and yet not harm animals, always opt for fake fur vests. Using this style of vest will make your look much more elegant and sophisticated.


To make winter combinations, wear the vest with leggings, a knit and boot. "Fur vest calls for visually strong pieces like him as striking colors, closer parts referring to winter," says Marcele. If you want to use it in summer, no problem, just add lighter parts underneath. Match then with skirt and tank top or dresses. Also choose light colors for the summer.

Leather vest

The leather vest is also the face of winter, but goes very well in summer productions. Knowing how to combine, anything is possible. Also give preference to synthetic leather-like coats that are not only ecofriendly priced but also more inviting. The black leather vest leaves the look with a rocker face, while the light vests make beautiful and super light productions.

Leather looks great when paired with other jeans, so wear it with jeans and skirts. If you want to lighten the look, combine it with dresses and printed fabrics. For the most elegant look, go for the maxi necklace and the heel. The tip Marcele gives is to use with structured and elegant pieces, as well as the tailoring.

Golden tips for wearing a vest without fail

Choosing your favorite model, now you need to know some tips to avoid making mistakes when wearing your vest. Consultant Marcele warns for some details, check out:

Vest in the summer: wear bright, open-waisted vests is the advice the consultant gives. • For the look to be very light, make fresh and light color combinations such as beige, white, blue or light green, for example. Mix with skirts or shorts on the underside?

How to combine: Making combinations with the vest is not very difficult, but to make the current look use with patterned pieces creating texture. "It could be the vest over a dress, with a blouse and long skirt or looking for a more masculine look, with tailored pants or shorts and printed shirt," advises Marcele.

Vest and physical type: For the consultant, what interferes most so that the vest does not fit well are the width of the strap and the depth of the neckline."Who has more hips and less bust looks better with the narrow vests, which have the most open neckline," he teaches. For those who have more bust and less hip, the tip is to use with the wider strap. For the short, the ideal is to wear vests with lower necklines. "The taller ones are better with those with deep necklines that the buttoning starts at the stomach," says Marcele. Plus size women with more hips and less bust can wear more varieties of waistcoat, such as prints. "Already the big bust should seek the most closed and discreet tones," he concludes.

Vest on the desktop: Women should prefer more discreet models. "The pattern or pattern of the fabric should be very small and in discreet colors, the cut should be more aligned," adds Marcele.

Collect at a formal event: choose models with gloss, whether for embroidery or brighter fabrics. It is worth combining with more formal pieces and never forget the high heels.

The vest is that versatile piece that suits many different styles and styles, just choose the one that best suits your look. Whether a more romantic or more classic look, for every occasion there is a more suitable vest. A golden tip that Marcele counts is always to notice the textures of the pieces.
