Victorian waistcoats

Victorian waistcoats

You might remember this type of waistcoat from movies like "From Hell" and other movies set in Victorian and Edwardian (let's face it, Hollywood has never been too bothered with correct timelines) times.

And now, you can have one of your very own, to wear at special occasions that require evening dress, as part of a costume or simply as a more original and fancier waistcoat than the normal models with your daily business suit. Or in true modern day street style: with your normal clothes.

This waistcoat is available in a wide range of colours and fabrics (corduroy, babycord, brocade, broadcloth, gabardine, ...), if you place an order, please let me know which colours (for lining and outer fabric) and fabrics you would like, as well as the size.

Available sizes:
XS to XXXXL

Starting price: € 60

This model is made out of thin stripe corduroy. The 5 buttons used for closing have little castle detailing.

Here you can see it worn as part of both an evening wear outfit and a street style outfit.

I wanted to show both photos as this way you get a good idea of the versatility of this garment.

Model: Timothy Edwards

This waistcoat is made out of grey crincle cotton for the front and a grey satin/polyester blend for the back and the lining.

The pattern has been made slightly longer to suit Bert's body as he is quite a bit taller than the average lenght for men.

Model: Bert Van den Wyngaert
