Quilted Vest

About this find

The Tommy John Quilted Vest is a sleeveless layer with a quilted finish. Quilting gives a vest a raised, stitched texture, so it adds visual interest to a plain top without needing sleeves. It comes in both solid colors and prints, which lets you choose a quiet neutral or a bolder pattern, depending on how you like to dress.

The fabric is a blend of 44% cotton, 30% modal and 26% polyester. Cotton is the main fiber, and modal and polyester are blended in to make up the rest. A mixed fabric like this is common in layering pieces that get pulled on and off through the day.

Care is simple. Machine wash cold and tumble dry low to keep the vest looking its best wash after wash. Washing cold and drying on low are gentler settings that help protect the fabric over time, which is useful for something you will probably reach for often.

Try wearing it over a long-sleeve tee in a contrasting shade so the quilted texture stands out. A vest is also a handy way to change up a look you already own, since it sits on top of shirts and sweaters you have on hand.
