Reasons why vests play a supporting role (1) With the beautiful impression they bring, you can create sophisticated coordination as you wish!
The “vest” is said to have its origins in the doublet (pool pointe), which was worn by men from the 14th to 17th century. Since the prototype of the vest was created in medieval Europe, it is only natural that it has a dressy and elegant impression. By incorporating such a vest into your outfits, you can surely add a sophisticated mood befitting an adult man in a lighthearted manner. It can be worn tied up like the gentleman below, or with casual items such as a short-sleeved T-shirt or polo shirt, to boost a mature atmosphere. However, if you want to take advantage of the dressy look, choose monotone colors such as black, white, and gray, or subdued colors such as navy.

(2) Vests play a supporting role because they emphasize vertical lines, naturally creating a smart men’s coordinate!
By utilizing a vest that can create a V-zone similar to that of a tailored jacket, it is easy to achieve a coordinated look with an awareness of vertical lines that will make the overall silhouette look slimmer and longer. However, it is also important to keep in mind that the impression given by the V-zone varies depending on the design, just as the openness of the V-zone varies depending on the design. If you want a classical and solid image, choose a model with a shallow V-zone, and if you want a sharper look, choose a model with a deep V-zone. It is also possible to emphasize the vertical line by choosing a striped pattern like the gentleman we picked up.
