The waistcoat is made from a linen blend, offering a natural texture and breathability.

Can I wear this waistcoat in warmer weather?

Yes, the linen blend fabric makes it suitable for warmer weather as it is breathable. It's also excellent for layering in cooler seasons.

How should I store this waistcoat?

What colors are available for this style?

Troubleshooting

Fabric appears wrinkled

Gently steam the waistcoat or iron on a low setting while slightly damp. Hanging it in a steamy bathroom can also help reduce minor wrinkles.

Corset back lacing is uneven

Loosen the lacing completely and re-lace evenly, ensuring consistent tension on both sides. Adjust to achieve a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing fit.

Gold-tone button dislodged

If the button is loose, re-secure it carefully with a needle and thread matching the original. For missing buttons, contact customer service for potential replacements.
