Vests come in various types, including suit, tuxedo, sweater, quilted gilets, and cropped vests. They are suitable for different occasions and can be worn by anyone.
Although there are various types of vests, the basic form is a sleeveless garment worn across the torso of the body and close to the waist. The neckline of the vest is a “v” formation. The vest may button or close the front or, in some cases, have none at all.
Men often wear suit vests. The vest, which usually has three or four buttons, goes under a suit jacket. More often than not, it will be the same color as the suit.
Like suit vests, tuxedo vests generally go under a tuxedo jacket and over a button-down shirt. They are popular to wear to weddings and other formal events, such as prom. In some cases, they are brightly colored and have various textures or patterns to add a unique touch to the ensemble. They are also popular for restaurant waiters to wear a button-down black or white shirt, but usually without the jacket, as part of their uniform. Buttons at the front close the vest.
Sweater vests are popular to wear in offices where employees are not required to wear suits. Usually worn over a button-down shirt, and sometimes paired with a tie, they are still appropriate for the workplace. Both men and women can wear them. They come in several different styles, colors, and textures. This type of vest is usually a pullover without buttons or zippers.
Quilted gilets are popular to wear in the cold weather or just as the seasons start to change when a jacket is too heavy. Some are made for very cold weather, while others are suitable for warmer temperatures. The interiors are generally made of polyester, nylon or down. The exterior has a puffy, padded appearance and closes with a zipper. In some cases the vest will also be waterproof.
Another type of vest is the cropped vest. It is usually shorter and tighter than the typical vest. The vest, worn by women, generally ends around the abdomen. When wearing this style vest, the woman may or may not wear a shirt underneath. Buttons or a zipper usually close the vest.
Whatever the preference, there are several different types and styles of vests for men and women. They are appropriate for almost any occasion and come in a variety of different styles. Almost everyone, regardless of size, age or gender, can find a suitable vest.
