Product Information

Full details

This Karen Millen Tailored Linen Waistcoat in Blue (Size 12) is designed for the modern woman seeking sophisticated and versatile additions to her professional and smart-casual wardrobe. Its key benefit lies in its elegant design, featuring a distinctive corset back for a flattering, tailored fit, and its ability to transition seamlessly from office to evening. A potential caveat is its specific sizing and care requirements due to the linen blend material. Key features include a breathable lyocell and linen blend, a collared neckline, button-front closure, sleeveless design, and a slim-fit silhouette.
