1910s Antique Vintage Edwardian Vest Creamy White or Ivory Cotton Summer Waistcoat - MENS Sm to Md
This amazing antique summer waistcoat is constructed of a creamy white or ivory colored cotton which has a slight brocade-like pattern and works well with so many outfits. Dress it up for a more traditional look or layer it for a fun fresh boho look! There are four pockets (yes four!!) and antique shell buttons with metal backs. The waist can be cinched in the back. My favorite part of this piece though, is the incredible hand-stitching for the button holes. Based upon the style, hand-stitching for the button holes, the buttons, and the fabric, I believe this to be Edwardian- Therefore an antique. For reference, model is modern women's size 4/6 and dress form is women's modern Medium. It should likely best fit a mens modern Medium, maybe a Small. That said please refer to measurements below to ensure proper fit!

Measurements buttoned and not cinched in back:
Bust: 38 inches
Waist: 36 inches
Length: about 20 inches in front
Good antique condition - Overall wear and minor discoloration/ yellowing. There are some very small spots/ areas of discoloration around the buttons. Additionally some rust spots, most on the interior and back. Some small pin needle sized rust spots on back of vest. The loop closure to cinch the waist is missing. It can be tied or a loop could be added.
All measurements are approximate as they are taken flat - for garments specifically this means where applicable (bust, waist, hips) has been doubled unless stated otherwise. If you are uncertain about fit and/or need more measurements please ask! If it is provided in the listing, models and/or dress form sizes are used as a point of reference only. Please remember that all bodies are different so always defer to the measurements I provide and check them against your own, preferably on a similar style garment.
