Frequently Asked Questions
Can I wear this buttoned or open?
Both work beautifully — worn open over a tee creates a relaxed, effortless casual look; buttoned and tucked gives a more structured, smart-casual appearance. The buttoned option also works well as a standalone top over a camisole or crop top.
What occasions is this vest suited for?
The Buttoned Front Slit Denim Vest is ideal for casual everyday wear, transitional dressing, western-inspired outfits, festivals and smart-casual occasions where you want a versatile, effortlessly considered layering piece.
Does the slit detailing affect the fit?
No — the side slits are at the hem and add movement and a contemporary finish without affecting the structured vest silhouette. They also make the vest comfortable and unrestricted to move in.
Is black denim easy to style?
Yes — black denim is the most versatile denim choice, pairing equally well with white, cream, dark and brighter tones. Unlike blue denim, black denim also works confidently in smart-casual contexts.
