Waistcoats: Your New Style Solution

By Emily Weatherill

The tailored layer redefining seasonal dressing

As spring wardrobes evolve in summer, tailoring becomes lighter, more versatile, and easier to style for everyday wear. This season, the waistcoat has emerged as one of the most modern pieces to incorporate into your wardrobe.

No longer restricted to traditional menswear suiting, waistcoats have had a fashionable glow-up and are now a staple in their own right.

Women’s Waistcoats

Our Astrid Waistcoat is a perfect example of the new waistcoat category. Inspired by timeless tailoring, it’s been refined with a contemporary filter. Designed with an elegant V-neckline and a clean, tailored silhouette. It brings instant polish to spring outfits. For a coordinated look, team the Astrid Waistcoat with the Argent Wide Leg Pant – together they create a modern suit that still feels smart, yet isn’t as restricting as a classic two-piece. Everything in your wardrobe should seamlessly transition from work, to night, and weekend looks; dress down a sharp waistcoat by switching the trousers for a pair of jeans, or a swishy skirt, when the occasion calls for more relaxed styling.

New Waistcoats for SS26

This April, we’re also introducing the new Argent Waistcoat which is equally exciting to style. Designed with a longer line silhouette, it features a refined crew neckline for a more sleek style that feels smart and contemporary. The extended cut creates a sleek elongated shape, which pairs beautifully with the Argent trousers to create a tailored look which works for office-wear, formal events, and evenings out.

With their balance of tailoring and effortless cool, waistcoats will become the defining piece of your spring style. Whether teamed with the matching set or layered into everyday outfits, you’ll quickly wonder how you ever got dressed without one of these adaptable style saviours.
