FAQs
Is the fabric prone to shrinking?
When washed in cold water and air-dried as recommended, the ribbed fabric maintains its shape well and resists significant shrinking.
Can this be worn as a standalone top?
Yes, the vest is opaque and styled as a standalone top, though it works equally well as a layering piece.
How do I choose the right size?
The vest follows standard sizing. Use your typical UK dress size to select the best fit, keeping in mind the ribbed material has a slight stretch.
Is the frill trim likely to fray?
The frill is professionally finished, but it should be washed in a garment bag if possible to minimize friction with other items in the laundry.
What kind of bra works best with this neckline?
A standard racerback or classic strap bra works well with the crew neck design, as the sleeveless cut is tailored to provide good coverage.
Troubleshooting
Buttons feel loose after extended wear
Check the stitching on the back of the buttons and reinforce with a needle and thread if they become slightly detached.
Fabric appearing slightly stretched
Wash the garment and lay it perfectly flat to dry to allow the ribbing to naturally retract to its original shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Brave Soul vest remains in pristine condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold water to preserve the fabric's elasticity and the delicate frill hem.
- Drying: Air dry by laying the garment flat on a clean surface; avoid tumble drying, as high heat can compromise the ribbing and fray the frill.
- Ironing: Use a low-heat setting if necessary, but avoid pressing directly on the buttons to prevent scratching or cracking.
- Storage: Store folded rather than hung on a thin wire hanger to prevent the weight of the fabric from stretching the shoulder seams.
