Where to get a waistcoat?

8 replies

I was under the impression that they are quite fashionable at the moment and am looking for one to wear over my smocky tops from last season to pull them in a bit.

I've just trailed round brent cross and only found one - in zara - which does not believe women have norks (or in my case, enormous bazookas).

Any ideas? Or am I hopelessly out of date?

a nice one in gap i keep seeing in all the magazines

I scoured gap and there were none to be found. Perhaps they've sold out everywhere?

Waistcoats are a bit kate moss wannabe no?

Would a belt do the job?

Are they? Oh dear. I doubt anyone would think I'm trying to look like her - I'm 43 for a start but I take your point

A belt looks a bit sack of potato tied in the middle on me. Mind you, I might look shit in a waistcoat too but I don't know until I can find one to try on

Waistcoats are great just now, really on trend. Not Kate Moss wannabe

Try Topshop, DP, Oasis, Warehouse, places like that.

Try these:

this one is really nice
this one is a bit more formal
this one is very on trend and good for norkage
this one is gorgeous
also gorgeous
I LOVE this one

There is a small start..

Ooh thanks very much for those DSM. Some great suggestions. I don't know why I couldn't find any when I looked on ASOS the other day - my searching ability is clearly crap

Principles had a lovely waistcoat last time I was in it (about 6 weeks ago) -they came in cream and black.
