FAQs

What material is this waistcoat made from?

The waistcoat is made from denim.

How should I determine my size?

Refer to the size guide provided by Karen Millen, considering the UK sizing indicated (e.g., UK 6).

Can this waistcoat be worn in warm weather?

Yes, its sleeveless design makes it suitable for layering in transitional or milder weather conditions.

What is the main styling recommendation?

It is recommended for both casual looks with denim or t-shirts, and smart-casual outfits with shirts and tailored trousers.

Troubleshooting

Iron on a medium setting while the garment is slightly damp, or use a steam iron. Ensure it is fully dry before storing.

Buttons seem loose.

Carefully re-secure buttons by hand-stitching or consult a tailor for professional reinforcement if necessary.
