Melissa Vest

The Melissa Vest is a black cotton vest for women, cut to give a clean, defined shape that works open over a T-shirt or buttoned up on its own. It is made from soft cotton and sits equally well at a desk or out on the weekend.

A vest carries a lot of an outfit on its own, and this one keeps its deep black colour and its shape wash after wash, so it stays the piece you reach for.

How to wear it

• Buttoned over a crisp white shirt for a sharp, put-together look.
• Open over a plain tee and your favourite jeans for something more relaxed.
• Worn on its own as a top with wide trousers or a skirt for an evening out.
